[USER=7]@CohhCarnage[/USER], I have a question for you if you could give me a moment? I know you're sponsored by intel and I know you have a ton of experience with gaming machines. I'm building a new rig at the end of the month for gaming and I was considering having Origin PC do it. any thoughts? Its a huge investment and I want to get it right. Thank you in advance for your time.

I may not be Cohh himself, but I would highly recommend checking out several options before committing to anything. I cannot recommend Digital Storm enough. It's pricey, but they let you configure the whole thing yourself and then have certified engineers construct it and then mail it to you.

I always checked on a site called Slickdeals . I was on a budget and got a pretty decent gaming rig for under 900 with a GTX980 card and an i7 4790k chipset. Just an idea but I would loved to have one of those other rigs if I had the cash flowing

I would recommend first finding out what you need in a PC. This can be done by going to one of the "Can I Run It" sites like http://www.game-debate.com/games/index. ... allout%204
scroll down on that page and you can put in different components like graphics card (GPU) and processor (CPU), or you can take a look at the recommendations on that site.
To build the machine and get the parts together you can use PC Part Picker : https://pcpartpicker.com/ to get the parts together and find out prices. PC Part Picker will even check compatibility on the parts to make sure you don't order something that doesn't work with something else.
Ultimately it's up to how much you want to spend/can afford.
