Just like the title says, I'd like to build a gaming PC for about $1000 USD, primarily to play ArmA 3. I'm pretty new to buying a PC as I've been using a Macbook Pro for the last 4-5 years and never really done this before, so I appreciate any help/feedback anyone has! I've included ArmA 3's recommended system requirements and roughly what I've come up with through some research.
So my question is, is this decent/affordable for what I'm looking for?
ArmA III System Requirements:
CPU - Intel: Core i3-530 2.9GHz OR AMD: Athlon II X3 440
Graphics - Nividia GeForce GTX 260
RAM - 4 GB
OS - Win 7 64
HDD Space - 15 GB
My own PC:
CPU: Intel Core i5 3570K
Motherboard: ASRock Z77 Extreme4 (I don't intend on overclocking BTW, just for gaming)
Memory: Kingston 8GB
Storage: 2TB
Video Card: GTX 760
SSD: *Need Suggestions*
Case: *Need Suggestions*
Power Supply: *Need Suggestions*
Optical Drive: *Need Suggestions*
Operating System: Windows 7
Thanks, I appreciate any tips/help!
