Hello, I have $700 to spend on a gaming pc.
I don't want to buy a pre-built one because I think they overprice it. I'm starting from scratch so I'm gonna need all the parts required for a computer like a keyboard,mouse,case,monitor and all the other stuff like a graphics card and basically everything needed for a computer. I'd like to know what I can get with my $700. I'm building it with a friend who knows how to build computers he just needs the parts. Can someone give me a good build for my computer for only $700 ?
Thanks for your help in advance, I'm juiced to get a new computer because my last one wasn't meant for gaming.
That's a bit of a tight budget for absolutely everything, is there any extra room in your budget?

In case there isn't I did throw this together. Some better deals may be able to be found with some hunting, though.

I'd suggest replacing the i3 with an i5, and TBH with you Win7 is far more user friendly than Win8. Or you could just wait till 10 is released.
