Well my current rig is 3/4 years old now so I've decided to treat myself to something special.

I would like to buy a rig prebuilt so I have someone to get it all working on my behalf, but if I'm going to get an insanely better deal with building it myself I can build it.

The games this rig needs to play at 1920x1080 are:
BF4
Arma3
Eve
Rome2
Online MMORPGS

Thanks
Ryan
 
Do you have a particular size in mind? ATX/mATX/ITX? Or to put it another way, is there a case your had in mind and is there anything else in particular you want included in the build?

Do you need any peripherals? Mouse/Keyboard/Heaset, etc.. ?
 
I'd like to go with a new case, just so it looks nice and new on my desk.

Thanks for the build, I just have a couple of questions;

1. Will OverClockers build this for system for me? [little worried about building my own as I managed to ruin a processor last time I messed around with my computer]

2. Is the SSD needed for anything other than reducing load times? If so I don't mind dropping that, as most games I play involve waiting for the slower computers to connect anyway.
 
Get an SSD, the performance increase on load times is brilliant.

Stulids build is great, nice case with the Ronin and the GTX 780 is a beast in BF4 - well when the servers are running fine anyway.

1) Maybe if you ask in the customer service section, but there are a ton of "how to" build a pc guides on youtube.

2) SSD's make everything better from reduced loading times to quicker responsiveness.
 
SSD's are ideal for MMO's too, especially those with large scale battles, or populated cities where many sprites have to load in at once, makes for a far more streamlined experience.
My PC is getting on a bit now, but when I was getting some stutter in BF3, I moved the game files to the SSD and the stutter was all gone.

A 120GB drive is big enough for Windows & a handful of games, the less load-intensive single player games you can just install on your HDD.
