Hello, I was thinking of building a Gaming PC, but due to limited funds(and currency) I can only use about 500CAD to build one. Goal is to run Rust/DayZ if possible on high but yeah mediocrity is fine I suppose. I already have a Monitor/Mouse/Keyboard/Earphones

It'd be great if any of you could help, thank you!

The only reason why I chose 500B over VP-450 is that you may want to upgrade to a 970 in the future. If not, or if you expect to upgrade to a 960, grab the VP-450 - higher quality.
