500$ Gaming PC

[Niqv]

Hey, i need to build my friend a computer for Gaming. this is for gaming more than anything else in the world so i need a beefy gpu. I need 8gb of ram in there as well. And for a case if there is a window in there it would be preffered. Please help me out as i could not find out how to make an appropriate build myself at this price point. Also i need the gpu to be able to play BF4 at least high settings around 60 fps. PLEASE HELP ME

well, if you can stretch your budget 23 bucks, I believe this should do great. I would suggest upgrading the cpu as soon as possible, but for bf4 this should be able to run it on ultra or very high.
