Hello to all.I am looking forward to buy a pc for 720p gaming in ultra settings.I don't have money to buy a rig enough for 1080p and 720p is enough for me.I already have a good monitor so please suggest other parts.Please remember that I wanna buy a pc that's capable to max out any modern games in 30-60 fps but in 1366*768 monitor.My budget will be less than 750 dollars.

That's 4+1 phase. Recommendations for FX series CPUs are 1 core per power phase. A six core needs a 6 phase power section. Not saying it won't run on less, but if you want long term stability and to supply the cpu with the juice it needs reliably these are the standards we have long agreed to on this forum.

A gtx 750 Ti would probably handle that rig just fine... Corsair cx 430. Either the amd option with an fx 6300 (not 6100) and decent board, or grab an i3/i5 rig if the i5 fits in the budget. I feel for a lower res the i5 will give better frames than the 6300. One of the cheap cooler master cases. Standard 1tb hdd. 4-8gb of RAM. Should fit into that budget.

$738 w/R9 270X

The 270X will be sufficient for gaming at 720P with pretty much any current title. If you want enough muscle to really push 1080P hard in the near future, get the 280X.

Nope 1080 Ultra gaming, you need at least a 290/290x or GTX780/780Ti.

^Agreed.
I still feel my GTX 580 (about 90-95% the power of a 760) is good for 1080P gaming and it's a dinosaur.

If you play games like Crysis 3, FC3, Metro, and certainly a few more titles about to be released, a safe bet is to go 290, even@1080p.
The GTX 580 series is only 3 years old it's not a dinosaur yet. My GTX 570 still gets the job done well with crysis 3 and BF4.

FC3 is comically bad IMO, so that's a write off. As for the rest of those games, they are an exception to the rule, not a rule themselves. Crysis has been terrible since Crysis 2, Metro has bad pacing... most of these "eye candy" games are really bad. Let's face it. FC3 doesn't even look good and it still runs terribly. Looks worse than Crysis from 2007 IMO.
I say, buy a card that'll run most games very well at 1080P, and that's the 280X. There are 5 or so exceptions to the rule. Avoid those 5 exceptions and choose from the thousands of other games available on Steam and you'll be fine. JM2C.
I agree. 280X will do all that for him. Will that fit into his original stated less than $750 budget? 280X is kinda pricey for that budget.
