Build Help/Ready:

Have you read the sidebar and rules? (Please do)

Yes.

What is your intended use for this build? The more details the better.

Primarily gaming. But I will be video and photo editing as well. I will also be doing a bit of web editing/correspondence on it, but that is only on occasion.

If gaming, what kind of performance are you looking for? (Screen resolution, FPS, game settings)

I'm wanting a decent gaming performance. My top 3 games right now are Dying Light, ArmA 3, and Borderlands TPS. I'm also wanting to get upcoming games (Battlefront, The Division, Rainbow Six Siege)

What is your budget (ballpark is okay)?

NZD$1,500

In what country are you purchasing your parts?

New Zealand

Post a draft of your potential build here (specific parts please).
