Do you guys have any opinions or suggestions about my gaming PC build that I've created (pcpartpicker link)

So I've gotten some suggestions and built what I think is the best gaming PC for me. I want to be able to play, for example, Witcher 3 on at least medium (although low isn't bad because of how extreme that game it). I didn't include a hard drive, case, etc. because I already have a gaming PC right now, just not a great one, and figured I could just re-use those parts.

Anyway, for playing games how well do you think this will run? Do you have any advice or suggestions?

I'm trying to stay under 600 and if you have any tips for me or better prices those are welcomed too. Thanks!

That link doesn't take us to your build, it just takes us to the Partspicker website.

If you go into your build, press "Edit Part List" top right, then look at the top of the part list. Press the [bb] button, and it will give you the list of parts, complete with lists, ready to copy. Paste that and send us it, we'll be able to help you then

Your build is good, will handle most games at high-ultra at 1080p.
This build for $30 more has a much better GPU, so will handle all games at ultra at 1080p. If your $600 budget is strict and you want to shed an extra $20 get rid of the CPU cooler as it isn't completely necessary if you're not overclocking.

No problem

Just a heads up, if you want to upgrade your build in the future, you MAY want to upgrade the MOBO as well, as this doens't support SLI or anything fancy like that.
