Best Build a PC

Hardware Build a PC
1

I need more help guys ,

 

Today I found out I had to lend out $200, so I only have $300 in my account. And yesterday bestbuy told me that they would only give me $1200 store(and online) credit for my faulty G74sx BBK8(No more Nvidia Shield or eyefinity for me)

My goal is to build the most powerful PC under $1500

The problem is that $1200 must be from the Best Buy Online Store (Best Buy items only not Marketplace)

The other $300 can be from anywhere. (Anywhere Newegg, Ncix, Microcenter, Tigerdirect, etc)

Another problem is that Best Buy only carries Nvidia Graphics cards (most powerful amd is 7850)

I want to be able to run Metro Last Light with SSAA at over >35 fps on 1080p

I was speaking with a Best Buy sales associate the other day when I was in there. He said Best Buy will price-match Newegg and Amazon. You should look into this and see if your location does this also. I don't know if this is a regional thing, or if all locations do that. It could very well save you alot of money though.

If Best buy could price match microcenter for cpus that would be awesome
