This is my build so far. What am i missing or need to upgrade? I want to be able to run top notch games like COD and Battlefield with little to no lag. I would like to run it as smooth and fluently as possible.
With this build what else should i look into getting? It needs to be under $1,2000 now.
Here's the link to build my PC, just copy most of the things i put and send me the changes please.
I modified the shell to the one i like, if you want to change it for a better build let me know

NO. Simply NO.
There are so many things wrong with that it is not worth listing.
Are you willing to build your own PC? (It's not hard)

and its cheaper so go for that anyway

Really i would prefer to have it built by the company because if there is anything wrong with it its their fault not mine. If it is so easy maybe i will, but i dont mind paying extra for it to be done right...
Can i have some specifics on what i should fix?

Building a PC is far better than getting a pre-built.
1) You can say that you did that
2) $300 ish extra for components
3 No limits to what you can do with it
4) satisfaction
5) skills and able to troubleshoot hardware issues (when they arise (rarely))
6) want to upgrade? really easy to do as you built the PC
Need I say more?

The real question is, are you willing to build the computer yourself? If not, the computer you will be purchasing pre-built will either, A. Be terrible or B. Cost a lot extra for the performance you want. It really is not worth it as it's fairly easy to build your own and there are plenty of guides out there to help you along the way.

If you guys all think i really should then i can try to give it a shot. Im not that bad with stuff like this. I will need plenty of tutorials so i dont waste my money and end up breaking it all...
