How do I build a very good gaming computer from 500-1000 dollars? And all on ultra highest settings?
So I got a 1000 dollars and I would like to build my own gaming computer, but can someone please tell me all the necessary materials to build it, cause I'm not so intelligent with the components for the desktop, so that would be great. And I would like to be able to have this computer with all on the highest settings of everything and stuff, so I can hope to play Elder Scrolls Online or future games with no lag or bad graphics whatsoever. So please give me advice on anything and just stating the best materials to build my own, and also please tell me how long the computer would last with everything on ultra highest settings until i'll need new stuff for it (like a video/graphics card or something). SO thanks in advance.
Btw do you think it would be a better deal just to buy one pre built for like a 1000 bucks? Like how much money would I really save by building my own?
(Oh and giving me materials that I dont really need, and making it like 600-800 dollars would be nice, but a 1000 is the most I can spend, and that's even going over my budget, but thanks again)

Prebuilt is never a better deal because you won't get what you want.
For Elder Scrolls (Skyrim) you don't need a $1000 gaming computer to play it on ultra settings. Here's an $800 build that can do it, and it saves you some bucks.

Be aware that it can't play BF4 (let alone Crysis 3) on ultra because not even more potent machines can.

Elder Scrolls online doesnt require a $1000 pc build. If you want to build a pc with 1000 bucks, you gotta do your research on parts and stuff. Tomshardware.com is a forum that helps noobs with building pc's and stuff, and there might be some questions on there that can help with the builds. http://pcpartpicker.com/ is a website where it helps you organize the needed parts in your build and gives you a list of where to buy them for the lowest price, and some reviews on the parts too. Also, here is a good youtuber who gives a guide on a 1000 dollar pc build:

He also has a playlist where he actually builds them.

Look up tech vets on YouTube and the channel has lots of videos on computer assembly. You can buy the parts at newegg.com
