I have recently gotten the itch to learn how to build my own pc. I was pretty oblivious a short while ago, but I think I have made some progress. Pretty sure this would only be for gaming and maybe storing pics and videos. I would like for it to be able to run stuff on fairly high settings and be able to stand up for a couple of years. I think my budget is around $800, but would be happy to spend a little less if similar performance could be achieved. I really have no idea which brands are good and which places to cut costs. I'll list below what I've come up with so far, but I am wide open to suggestions on improvements and cost savings. I kind of got lazy with my searching after the GPU. And I realize this is most likely over $800, but I wasn't sure of the best places to cut costs. Thanks!
