I could recommend a prebuilt...Given it's at least a DECENT deal, and that you can tell what internals it has. Since if you get a decent CPU/RAM/etc, but the GPU is shitty and you upgrade it anyway... Now you need to calculate watts, and upgrade PSU... And it's not long before you may as well have built it.

But if you can determine this won't be a problem, go for it. But then you have to research parts........ and now you might as well build it ;)

40% mark up on meh components is bolded?.

its a tuban guys

tuban

if you want decent longevity get the i5 with 970 u wont need to upgrade for a while and if u do ull just need a new gpu

tuban is like shit i think anything past a 280 is going to bottle it even with OC + they dont oc well and their max temp is like 60c

this is what id get for a quiet-focused build with your budget. eventually, you should look into getting an SSD for booting windows. a cpu cooler, such as a Cooler Master 212 (evo or not), would be ideal for slight overclocks to your cpu and go for around $30.

this build will max the games you've listed, with ease.
