What is your budget and currency? $800-900
Do you need a monitor? Yes but, not included in the budget.
Do you need a keyboard? Not included^
Do you need a mouse? Not included^
Do you need an operating system? Nope
What will you use the PC for? I'll mainly be using it for gaming(Dragon Nest, Tera, Fallout series, Skyrim, BF4, CSGO, etc etc)

I planned on using this since I've had it for awhile, hopefully it's not a problem. xD [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

I'd like recommendations for Monitor/Keyboard/Mouse, they don't need to be included in the budget as I can always get them later.

I don't plan on OCing right off the bat either but, I do plan on doing it at some point.

I think that's all you guys need to know? I'll answer anything I missed of course. =P

Edit: I'll be using a one monitor setup at 1080p.

with these parts you wont have to overclock to run games, I know its $40 over budget but you could downgrade the case (I stuck that case there because I like it). or go with the FX-8350 and save around $100 with only runs .7ghz slower and I have the processor and love it, also I never had a problem with it

This is my favourite $1000 build. Remove the OS and it should be close to your budget. [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Dont get a K series processor if you won't overclock. I can tell your not because your using the stock cpu cooler. Since your not overclocking then drop the mobo and get like a z97-e for $40 less. That PSU is horrible get like a seasonic 80+ gold or a Evga Supernova NEX g1/g2

Who needs an optical drive...

I didn't include an aftermarket cpu cooler but obviously get one but its not a necessity at first. The psu is definitely not horrible (I'm still using it and havent had any problems what so ever) and I was trying to stay within the given budget, getting one of those psu's would be out of the budget and anyone that wants to install windows, what movies or buy any disc of any kind. Its stupid not to have one when disc's are still around and used
