Estimate

Well we need to know what res of the monitor is to be able to do that, keep in mind nothing is going to run all games at highest settings with highest aa, but you can run 98% of the games with highest settings and good aa.

so to know your res we need to know your monitor, since you don't have one, a good spot to be I guess is around 1900 x 1200 res, for that normally we recommend an IPS panel monitor for best picture quality/clarity, but they cost more, were you can get a cheap TN panel with that res for $150 - $175, the IPS panels we recommend here on sale go for $230 - $260, so I'm gonna recommend a 23" IPS but if you rather sacrifice picture quality for price then go ahead:

Dell UltraSharp U2311H 23

keep in mind we recommend you don't pay full price and instead wait for a sale on these that tends to happen at least once a month so far.

Now assuming we figured out res, we looking at something like this build:

Here you go Ticket# 567544 --- $2839 (To see this build click here)

you have to add shipping and a few bucks for adding in one big fan to the top of the case and some other extras tlike mouse and keyboard, and I would say $3000 for pc and $260 for monitor.

Now you can also checkout ode level 3 (we don't recommend level 4 because of the 590, not a good idea).

in ode level 3 itself, we are not crazy about the psu and the cpu cooler but if you know your way around a pc, you will be fine.

We can always remove some stuff from my config and you can add them down the road, like ssd or the 1TB bc.

The config I posted was a pc with everything in it, like I said we can take stuff off, for example you can just go with the 1TB BC and add teh ssd later, or just go with ssd and add the 1TB later.

but you got those hdd setup because:

HDD1 = fast small drive: os/apps/games

HDD2 = regular large drive: media/personal/work file storage

but lets say you go with just the ssd, price goes down to $2719, now lets say you went with just one 570 also, and would add teh second later if you saw you needed it, price now is $2299, pass that I would not remove anything.

single sli will run all games at the mentioned res but you may have to turn down some settings, some games at highest settings and high aa may need sli.

I recommend going with one 570 and adding in the second one yourself later.

in a couple of years you can easily upgrade gpus in this system if needed.
