Looking to build a computer that could play BF4 on full graphics. I am looking to get a feel for what a computer of that quality would cost. Would be built in the U.S.A. by me.

It depends on what you need. Do you need an OS? Do you need a monitor? Keyboard/mouse? Speakers?

This should be taken with a grain of salt, because although the recommended requirements are out it is still a bit of guess work for ultra settings.

Recommended Specs:
CPU - Intel Quad-Core or six-core AMD
Memory -8GB
Graphics - Nvidia GTX 660 or Radeon HD 7870

If you're talking about just a tower then something like this should probably do the trick. I just put this together in five minutes to give you an idea, so make sure to do your own research on the components.

Could downgrade to a 760 for $150 less (alternatively I'm sure there are some AMD cards that could do the trick) if you want to save money. I'm sure a 760 will play it on high, but maybe not ultra. Also, if you plan to overclock your cpu then go for the i5-3570K for another $45 and grab an aftermarket cooler.

The best part of this system. It should play any game out there right now at the best graphics and be able to play future games for a long while.
 
This is what we know.

So how about this?

New lga 1150 cpu + mobo. , GTX 760 with 4GB memory.
Sure GTX 770 is faster but it do not have so much memory on.
So maybe better buy one with more memory.

In thisbuild is better cpu to lga 1155

If you have 2200$ to put in pc.. Id lose any air cooler or one for all water cooler.
Build custom loop. Then SLI 760 they are faster than one 780 or as fast in all games.
The Zotac Idid put in are silent and they OC so good that they are near as fast as the 770

Buy desent monitor like this. http://www.amazon.com/QNIX-QX2710-Evolution-LED-Monitor/dp/B00BUI44US
