    As per the title, looking for a gaming computer for under $1200 ($1300 max) with parts that are available from stores in Western Australia (had issues with newegg last time I purchased with them)

    (Main stores in wa are
    www .austin.net.au/ (without dot at start)
    www .ple.com.au/
    www .msy.com.au/index.jsp
    )

    If it could contain a GTX 670 and a 3770K at this price it would be great

    Budget $1300 max
    Resolution 1920x1080
    Any other intensive software or special things you do (Frequent video encoding, 3D modeling, etc) - Streaming
    Country- Australia
    Parts that can be reused -None
    Do you need an OS? Yes
    Do you need peripherals (e.g. monitor, mouse, keyboard, speakers, etc)? No

    This. If you're just gaming, then a 3570k will be more than enough. You're not going to notice any beneficial gain from having the 3770k.
