Okay, so I have been saving up money for a little bit and I wanted to build a new gaming computer. I have $1000 in budget and I need all parts. Looking to upgrade from my http://www.cnet.com/products/gateway-fx6800-01e/specs/
Want to run Dual Monitor.
I am seeking your help because I've had this computer for about 5-6 years, and it's time for an upgrade. I am a serious gamer, ranging from high-end MMO's to small stuff like Minecraft.
I know how to put it all together, but I don't have the time to do the research for parts. Any help would be appreciated. Will reply to any questions.

Monitor is not in final price, I already have one that will work.
Add Win 7, and Either or on AMD/intel (Best Preformance for my money kinda deal, no preference otherwise)
I also do not plan on OC or Crossfire
If you don't plan to overclock or need crossfire, then go with the AMD. The 760 is going to be able to handle most games. You can also remove the 212 Evo then also, which is on there for overclocking.

Here's an Intel, for $3.88 over budget. If your going to be editing the AMD might be a little more useful. Just remember with AMD its more cores cheaper quality, and with intel its more geared towards gaming with the hyper threading.
