This is what I came up with, it was hard, considering I wanted to choose a 980 for you but we have to settle on a 970 here. I almost had to choose 8GB of RAM, but we want the best of the best we can get here, right? 16GB, and it came down to about 902 dollars. Not bad at all, considering you can buy about 48 dollars in other things you want for your computer, such as case fans, etc. Here is the build specs itself: PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant
