$1000 USD Gaming Rig

Hello everyone, my brother would like for me to build a pc for him, but the $1000 has to include the keyboard, mouse and an monitor. I would like to squeeze out as much performance out of it. He will be using it to play modded gta 4, bf3 and bf4, and a modded skyrim (enb's and etc) I will be using it to record mostly battlefield/skyrim and edit. 

This is what i have so far: 

PCPartPicker part list (http://pcpartpicker.com/p/fJfgCJ)

  • AMD FX-8320 3.5GHz 8-Core Processor
  • Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3 ATX AM3+ Motherboard
  • G.Skill Ares Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1866 Memory $73.99 @ Newegg 
  • Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
  • PNY GeForce GTX 780 3GB Enthusiast 
  • NZXT H440 (White/Black) ATX Mid Tower Case
  • Corsair CX 750W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply
  • AOC i2267Fw 60Hz 22.0" Monitor
  • Razer DeathStalker Wired Gaming Keyboard
  • Razer DeathAdder 2013 Wired Optical Mouse
  • Hyper 212 evo?

Now this is what I have come up with, but if someone can come up with a better build then this, then be my guest. Do keep in mind this has to have keyboard, mouse, and monitor in there as well. 

Sidenotes: He is going for a red/white build. If you can fit in an aio cooler in there, go for it, same with SSD, not necessary right now, but would be nice, if you can do it without sacrificing performance. I myself wish to overclock a little bit. Programs i personally will be using on this rig is the whole adobe creative suite, such as premiere and final cut. 

Let me know what you think! Thanks all 



Very nice. Although I would spring the extra few bucks for the 8350...they tend to be better overclockers than 8320s, at least in my experience...better binned, but other than that...very nice.

GTA IV modded is quite, interesting.. you will want a decent quadcore vs the old 8 core listed (not that it's bad, it's just not as good as the intel and required for GTA more or less.
