I'm building a PC soon but I need to know what build I am suppose to do. I am not a techy person at all. Should I get http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168... or http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168... or if my build exceeds the limit of my budget http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168... I have found a cheap with good reviews case http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168... but I am not sure if it can fit the graphics card. I do not need a new monitor even though this one is old, it still works. I would love recommendations too

Update: I found a very recommended 8GB RAM thing for performance gaming(extreme is too expensive) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
And http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168... for harddrives
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168... for CPU/processors
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
for fans
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
for power supply
last but not least
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
for motherboard

This adds up to a total of $613.93 w/o graphics card and I am probably going to find some coupons too. The remaining money will be left to help improve my computer so it won't die easily.

So you're convinced that you will never want to enable PhysX in any games?

BUT...
With Nvidia releasing their GTX770 sometime next week, it might be a good idea to hold off a little while and see how things develop.

I always recommend the 7870XT as a great budget card since you can OC it to rival a 7950. http://amzn.to/11R8RrF

i would also recommend the sapphire 7870XT. over the powercolor bc of the colling solution, powercolor card runs very hot and hums when under load. i just sent out for my sapphire after returning the powercolor one. u get what u pay for and its not worth saving 20-30 bucks if ur gna oc the card and burn it out. the 7870xt will max out most games on the market right now on 1080p. if u want to use more than 1 screen u might want to go with a 7950 or 7970. or nvidias 680 FTW 4gb card. but 7870XT should last u at least a yr maybe 2 (not maxxed out the way games are graphically demanding now).
