Building a new PC, know little about building

I have about a $1300 budget. Main thing that I would want to do with the computer is play games like BF4, Arma 3 (obv not ultra), Skyrim (with lots and lots of texture mods)

 

If anyone could help me out with picking parts and guiding me through building it when I order that would be great.

 

It won't be for a while since I still need to sell my laptop and PS3 first.

 

Thanks!

OK what are your priorities? I am very experienced with building computers. My current build is $3500 :)

 

Priorities should be considered like this:

 

#1 CPU. Pick your core!

#2 Motherboard. This has to match your CPU's pins!

#3 What is it going to be used for? if for gaming, you'll want a nice GPU (graphics card) and some RAM. For videoing, you'll want a fair bit more RAM plus maybe an SSD.

#4 Do you want a fast boot time? SSD or HDD?

#5 pick your monitor

#6 pick accessories

 

let me know if you plan on videoing and such!

I'll be in touch! I can guide you all the way!

Use your old stuff if you can, unless you are doing a completely new one.

 

If you want to stay in that budget stick with LGA 1155 (CPU socket type).
