Hey guys, i have compiled a list of all the best gaming PC parts that you can pick up and use in your system if you are looking for a new update, or if you just want a new completely different part.
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
To start the build off with the CPU i chose: Intel Core i5-3570k
Buy it here: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
This processor is a flat out beast. I have never had any problems with it and it will be reliable CPU for amazing quality games earning you about 40-50 fps on games like Battlefield 3 and Crysis 3
For a Graphics Card, i chose: Sapphire Radeon HD 7770
Buy it here: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
This graphics card will be plenty for high end games. The best thing about this graphics card is that you get a lot of bang for your buck. You get amazing performance but without breaking the bank.
For the motherboard i chose: ASUS Intel H77 mini ITX
Buy it here: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
So as you will notice this is a Mini-ITX board. These are getting more popular everyday and i see them in almost everyone's build. This will also make it very small and compact, perfect for LAN gaming.
For the case i chose: BitFenix prodigy Mini-ITX
Buy it here: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
This case is very compact and easy to look at case. It is a little bit expensive for a Mini-ITX, but that aside i think it is worth it to pay a little bit extra, just because of the exceptional build quality made from aluminum.
For a hard drive: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB Hard drive
Buy it here: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
This is a great little hard drive that will provide you with more than enough space to store all of your games, pictures, videos and anything else you want and still have a good amount of space for everything else.
For the PSU, I chose: Corsair Builder series CX 500 Watt Power Supply
Buy it here: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
This is a great power supply because it is very cheap without being cheaply made, witch is what everyone looks for in computer parts.
Below this, i will also link you to some upgrades in all the parts when you have the money or you may want to just start with these.

I have a few questions about your build...
Why the high end 3570k and the mid-range 7770?
Why the K series chip with a H77 chipset?
How much does this amount to altogether?

I also don't understand why he even got the components he chose, the prodigy could have been swapped for a cheaper/more reasonable with this build, and h77 does not allow overclocking(I quote from M249) so your out of luck until you get a sufficient board. OP I honestly am confused. I am not saying this topic was a bad idea, but there are two stickies that cover this more in depth. Good idea just a little too late!

The 4770K won't even work with that motherboard. It's a socket 1150 CPU and the motherboard is socket 1155. As previous posts have pointed out, it's a goofy build.
I also beg to differ about the CX-series PSU. It's a cheap PSU and it is cheaply-made, but it's not a bad unit. However, the CX430 would be a better buy.
