can you give advice for 500 usd build, it must be an INTEL and no OC 1tb hdd. if you can, add 18.5 monitor please
 
Solution
So, if you do not want a monitor then this build is the best for the price. I hope you like it. If there is anything you feel like changing then feel free to ask me. This is a good build for that budget.

...
So, here is the build you should go for. Getting a 18.5 inch monitor is a no brainer as much better 1080p 23 inch monitor from Asus is available for like just 25 dollars more, so i included the 23 inch Asus Monitor. Also since you wanted to stick to Intel, hence the best i could have got in the price was the i3 3220 with a 2GB 650 Ti boost. It is very good though, should serve you good for most of the time. So here is the build :

that is not true, a i3 will do fine in gaming and even a pentium g860 will do u good even though its a dual core. at this price point the g860 will be fine and there is no need for a cpu upgrade unless you are going to upgrade this system or mainly the graphics card. there are 560ti's out there for around 130$ which will do you completely fine in gaming
 


Okay, so i did not noticed the "IF". Thank you for pointing that out. Let's see what i can plan without the monitor. It is better to have him both the options.
