Hey, im looking at buying a dedicated gaming computer which has the ability to max out games such as crysis 2 and BF3 with a playable FPS and am yet to decide whether to have it premade or build it myself . Basically im looking for the parts for an intel build which would maximise the performance for the 2000 dollar budget. This is my current idea but i am unsure on what case and power supply i would need as well as any additional parts required (e.g CPU Cooling)
Also my price range does include a monitor and keyboard as i need new ones.
Cpu:Intel Core I7 2600k 341$
Motherboard:ASRock Z68 Extreme4 Gen3 Motherboard 185$
Disk Drive (optical drive): Pioneer DVR 219L DVDRW 35$
Graphics card: Gainward Geforce GTX 580 3GB Phantom 588$
Hard Drive: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 110$
Ram: Corsair CMX4GX3M1A1600C7 4GB DDR3 (x2) 138$
Operating system: Windows 7 32bit. 100$
Total so far = 1497$
Your thoughts on this would be appreciated as well as suggesting ways to improve my build as well as suggesting the parts i have missed out due to being unsure! Also im new to computers and their parts, so my choices may be a little uninformed so far!
