something like
i7
16 GB
2TB hard drive and 120 SSD
2 GB NVIDIA GeForce GTX660
or even better things idk
Going to be getting myself my own computer, and I'm not that great on choosing what is good for a Gaming PC. I have a budget of $1200 and this is only for the computer itself, not including keyboard, mouse and etc. Any suggestions?

i5 3570k
Some generic z77 board like asrock extreme4 z77
8GB of RAM
Nvidia GTX 670
Samsung 840 128GB SSD
1~2TB Drive
Probably a Corsair H60 Watercooler
Case is your choice, but it's preferred to have a full tower one.
And CD drive is just any 20 dollar one, it will do.

@Flying Magical Ponies prices are different everywhere so you cant really know it
You dont need 16gb of ram plus you dont need an i7 either.
Fast 8gb ram > 16gb random rab
High clock 4 cores > 8 random clock 8 cores (fake)
Light travels faster than sound. That's why most people seem bright until you hear them speak.

I'm lazy as fuck so I won't be posting specs,
but build one yourself
Oh, and since im typing anyway
GTX 680 as a graphics card, GTX 690 is 2x the price, and not even THAT much better
Been looking at the parts above, and been looking at a few gaming computers. One I found in particular seems good but I'm not sure.
The price is about $949.78, but I'm not sure if it's good compared to others.
phenom x6 1100t
gtx 560
8gb ram
you are welcome
old system but cheap
