http://pcpartpicker.com/user/dromni/saved/3qXE Here's the link to the part list that I made myself. This is my first time building a PC and my budget is about $700. I play mainly battlefield 4, GTA IV, COD Ghosts. Is there anything I can improve to make it more gaming worthy? Thanks!

I recently bought a USB Gamepad, but it isn't recognised in games. I know it's not a problem with the gamepad, because I've used it on my boyfriends laptop on the same game I'm trying to play (Rogue Legacy) and it works fine. But on my laptop it doesn't seem to recognise it. When I go into...
