Hey everyone. I'm looking to build a desktop for Christmas and I have a budget of around $1500. I'm going to be playing games such as Minecraft, Battlefield, Call of Duty and I'm also going to be doing some photo and video editing. I'm trying to get the best possible setup within my budget, all help is appreciated.

Christmas is more than a month away, December 25th. Prices, shipping rates and technology change daily, it would benefit you to come back a week till Christmas to get your build list sorted giving you the most in cost effectiveness.
