As you can see from the title of this forum post, I'm Going to be building my own gaming pc. On this pc I will be playing games like Shadow of Mordor, Witcher 3, Far Cry 4, Fallout 4 etc. I want to play at 1080p with high setting at about 60 fps, but a little under will be fine as well. If you have any suggested builds at the $900-$1200 range, please put the specs/link in the comments. Thanks!:)

Oh. Probably because I put a list with prices in that post, so I am sure the system assumes it's a spam post. Who can I contact about that? I cannot edit it.
Here it is without prices.
easy.
i5 6600k
Asus z170m motherboard
16gb ddr4 ram
corsair RM750 PSU
Noctua NH-D14
Literally any mid tower case
GTX 1070
1tb WD HDD
Win 10 home
And you've got one hell of a monster gaming rig for just over the max budget, plus shipping and tax.
You can cut that down to under the max budget if you get a super cheap $30 case.
You could even skimp on the CPU cooler and save another 30-50 dollars, and another 25 by getting the non-K version 6600 if you don't want to overclock.
Which should easily come in under the limit after shipping and taxes.
Why i7? 8 gig of ram is enough for most things. just go with less hdd and a ssd. Why GTX960 when there is better cards, such as 390 and 970 (also 1070 and 480 later on) why 900 PSU when less will still work? why z170 board?

Try these:
-Intel Core i7-6700 (8M, 4 cores, 8 logical processors)
-16GB DDR4, 4TB HDD
-MSI GeForce GTX 960
-900 PSU
-Windows 10 Home
-IntelAsus Z170
For better performance of Minecraft and games.
That's very vague and very unbalanced.
Why?
What PSU?
Why an i7 when an i5 can do the same with gaming?
Why a 960 when you can get a lot better for slightly more.
Why did you recommend the motherboard chipset and not an actual brand?
Resolved above
Why am I being marked as spam?

16 gb of ram is very nice, but you wont get any extra FPS or anything.
Buut, you wont EVER run out of ram, so 16gb is OK, but if you rather spend the money on a SSD, thats would be 10x better!
