Hi

I'm planning to buy a new gaming pc and i would like to get some suggestions. My budges is around 1500$. I want to buy really good parts to last me for long. (have my current gaming rig for almost 7 years! only changed graphic card once). I want it to be able to run new and upcoming games without problems. I only need it for gaming.

The budget is purely for the case and the parts, without screen/keyboard/etc. As for the case, i would like it if it will be open on the side (open as to see the inside of the case), blue light can also be nice as i have no idea how to add light myself but it's not a must.

Thank you

You could bump the cpu to a 4770k for an extra 100$,double the ram for another 100$ or get a watercooler for the cpu for 100$ as well

Yup, but you don't get a huge increase in FPS for the extra cash you spend on the i7.

Watercooler like the H100i,as you will probably get an unlocked CPU you might as well overclock it.
