Budget Gaming PC

[th3legitbeast]

So I have recently made a couple of threads about this but everyone is saying how I should increase my budget, I don't need liquid cooling, SSD's or GTX Titans, I just need a build for 350-450 dollars. Games I wanna play are CSGO, Custom Zombies on WaW, H1Z1, GMOD, stuff like that, I plan on continuing with modern games on my Xbox, the pc will be more for third party exclusives.

Also I don't need an OS or Mouse and keyboard but if you would like to include them up the budget to 550


*UPDATE* I need a pci wifi card, and I don't need an optical drive

Is the R7 370 that much better than a 750ti to warrant paying 30 dollars extra? And would a pentium g3258 overclocked perform better than the athlon since most of the games I want to play don't require four cores?

All of Valve games are a bit more cpu depended.I was using FX6300 and had 250+ fps most of the times in CS GO but the motherboard or the cpu broke yesterday and i can't use it. You don't need expensive card such as the Titan for this games. Get a good price per performance cpu and some deacen card would be able to do it 7800, r7, r9 anything will do well

Really? I just looked at some benchmarks on CS GO, which will be the game I play the most and both ran at similar fps
