Kinda wanna keep in the 500 - 600 range but I came up with something like this changing the case but saw it has a decent amount reviews but tbh I did like the case you had picked out so I may just drop the R9 290x 4GB & get the GTX 770 & Get the case you recommended as well as watercooling as so:

2nd one is what I'd go with. The R9 290 is a great card but I have that Twin Frozr GTX 770 and love it. The Seidon is going to be better than the 212 EVO and the S340 is the better of the 2 cases so for that reason, I'd go with the 2nd one if I was in your situation. The performance increase in the R9 290 over the GTX 770 isn't huge anyway.

Ahh these we're my thought's exactly thank you for your feedback and help Sanctorum

I believe I will go with the second one, I really love the case & cooler and with this 30 extra I seems in my opinion to have made it more future proof as in better airflow and spacing for upgrades in the new case you recommended and also the water cooler which will allow slight overclocking in the future as well as better temperatures whilst under heavy load.

So would you say this [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

would run games like:
DayZ SA
Arma 3
BF4
Etc
On Ultra at 60FPS (apart from DayZ as I understand DayZ is terribly optimized so I would most likely drop it down to medium or even low for highest fps possible)

As from my research it seems these components would do pretty well

Easily, as long as you're playing at 1080p and not a higher resolution, such as 1440p. The higher the resolution, the lower the FPS will be. At 1080p though, you should get an easy 60FPS in those games.

Yup I understand the resolution and frame rates & yes I'm playing at 1080p and thank you for your help.

I've repped you This will most likely be my build unless something happens like a deal by Friday.

but again Thankyou
