    Fair enough, I guess I can write off SLI as a future upgrade.

    Maybe "within a year" isn't accurate. If newer games come out down the line, I would like to have the option to either SLI or just upgrade the card depending on how far out that is, and which is a more cost-effective measure.

    That's the game plan. I just keep my gaming rigs for a long time, so I foresee either SLI'ing or replacing the card down the road, grant it that could be two years or so out.

    Hi tiraides, Thanks so much for the response. I'm thinking I'll go with the Z87-GD65 for the slight OC boost. I'm going to remove the backup drive and dvd drive as I have quite a few of both laying around. As far as the case goes, I think I'm going to go with the Fractal Design Define R4 or...

    @Dangman - I would love to get your advice as well with regard to what you currently know about BF4.

    I'm ready to buy now. I'm willing to spend around $1000 on the remaining pieces; more less if I can justify a performance/$.

    I'm fiending for some Ghost & BF4. I've got both installed on my old rig, but sadly they are unplayable. I think I'm ready to do a build now, even if the BF4 multiplayer isn't 100% benched.

    Not as extensive of a review as Tom's Hardware, and other sites' single player, but finally came across a post-release multiplayer review HERE After reading that, I'm happy with my GPU purchase.

    Gaming Rig $800-$1200 Budget

    So I passed on the mobo, but it looks like the majority of BF4 performance reviews haven't shown much beyond the norm of the GPU performing most of the work beyond having a quad core/thread machine. I could be wrong though, just getting antsy and wanting to complete the build. Is that the...

    Gaming Rig $800-$1200 Budget

    Another solid deal popped up on my radar today for a motherboard. It's LGA1155 socket, so I couldn't do a slightly more energy efficient Haswell build, but from my understanding the Ivy Bridge performs just as well as Haswell. $80 - MSI Z77A-G45 LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX...

    The deal is dead now, but I would have raised my budget if the performance scales well with the increase.

    Okay, thanks for the quick response. Went with a single; if you would recommend SLI, let me know and I'll grab a second. Thanks!

    I know we agreed on waiting, but the EVGA GeForce GTX 770 Dual FTW 4GB GDDR5 Video Card w/ ACX Cooler is on sale for $326 shipped... Should I jump on this.. maybe even get two for SLI?
