Just put this together on friday. I am happy with it, although power supply came faulty.
Which in return fried my motherboard and CPU.

Click to reveal

I hate Amazon now.

Where did I put that facepalm gif?

Oh there it is.

mt09squrtWhen you play a game if you have 60 FPS that is all you need, BECAUSE a monitor or screen will only run 60 FPS, anything over makes no difference in gameplay.

Umm, no? Not all monitors have a 60hz refresh rate. There are some with 120hz or even 144hz where more fps WILL make a large difference.

That build isn't really good at all. You can get a better AMD card for cheaper and an APU is not necesary at all with a standalone GPU. With this budget you could easily get a 4690 and r9 280.

Well its time for me to hop into the fray, #1 even under 1,000 bucks you can get a beast of a machine, looking at what you need from it its time for a lesson. When you play a game if you have 60 FPS that is all you need, BECAUSE a monitor or screen will only run 60 FPS, anything over makes no difference in gameplay. now I will send you one of my personal builds and it is fantastic (not to mention looks beautiful)

Sketti1My budget is about, $600 - $1000 USD.

Are you looking for peripherals as well?

I would recommend an AMD FX 6300 cpu
and an AMD r9 270x (Go with the sapphire overclocked one if you want)

EDIT: Sorry i don't have a whole list but i would highly recommend using these parts in your build

My budget is about, $600 - $1000 USD.

Not asking for a super computer but, a decent one for around that range.

Seems a bit much, but why not get that?

DJ_opticuk.pcpartpicker.com/p/zyNvsY #op

Don't get that.
