I was deciding whether i should build a custom PC or buy one and i went with a custom. I'm on a budget of $500-$600. I would like it to be an Intel i5 with overclocking capabilities. 8 gb of ram and a terabyte of storage. A really good graphics card would be nice and a sleek nice looking case. I would like to run battlefield smoothly and also some other graphic intensive games.
