Hey there!
I'm looking into spending around $1000-$1100 on a new rig so that I can enjoy some gaming (I can go over a little more but looking to keep it within $1100 post MIR). I'm going to get a 27" 1440p monitor (not part of this budget) so I do need a good video card that can run games at that resolution... maybe a 290 or 770 4gb?
I have all the peripherals and get free Windows 8 copy from school. I do need a case and all the parts. I came across this build today: Intel Core i5-4690K, Gigabyte Radeon R9 290, Fractal Design Define R4 w/Window (Black Pearl) - System Build - PCPartPicker which is slightly higher than my budget but I'm sure there's room for some savings. Not sure if it's a good build but feel free on improving on the one linked or help me with a completely new build.
I've been looking around to find any good deals. I couldn't find much, but are these worth getting?
MOTHERBOARD: GIGABYTE GA-Z97X-SLI Z97 ATX Motherboard - LGA1150 Socket, Intel Z97 Express Socket, 4x DDR3 Memory, Max. 32GB - GA-Z97X-SLI at TigerDirect.com
CASE: Fractal Design Define R4 Black Pearl w/ USB 3.0 ATX Mid Tower Silent PC Computer Case - Newegg.com
I don't really know much about parts so I couldn't really come up with my own build. Not sure what other information you need, I'm from NC, USA so any site that ships there is fine.
Thanks so much!
