Hi all

I've been using a laptop for the past 10 years and I feel it's time to purchase a desktop. My budget is about $1,400 and the desktop would be used for light gaming (Dota2, Star Wars Battlefront). I would need a wifi card to connect to the router. I hope you guys can help to recommend the build.

Also, monitor is not required as I have it already. However, if you can recommend good keyboard and mouse, i'd gladly welcome it. :)
