His choice of games do not require that much horsepower as yours:

This build focuses mainly on aesthetics (black and red theme!), haptic enjoyment while providing adequate performance to run those games on max settings.

CPU+MB: Intel Core i5-4440 + ASRock B85 Fatal1ty Killer @ $345
RAM: G.Skill RipJaws-X DDR3-1866 CL9 8GB Dual Channel Kit [Red] @ $115
GPU: MSI R9-270 2GB GAMING [BattleField 4] @ $307
R9-270 can be easily overclocked to meet or exceeds that of R9-270X's performance, both have identical chips.
SSD: Kingston SSDNow V300 240GB @ $199
HDD: Western Digital Blue 1TB @ $76
ODD: Samsung 24X CD/DVD Writer [OEM] @ $21
PSU: FSP Aurum S 500W [80 Plus Gold] @ $89
CASE: Antec X1-T [Window] @ $75
OS: Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit [OEM] @ $115
DSP: Dell S2340L 23" LED [e-IPS] @ $219
KB: Cooler Master Storm QuickFire TK [Mechanical] @ $149

Total: $1710

Optional:
GPU: Zotac GTX 760 2GB @ $338

Buy and Build from Tradepac, #05-18.
