Here is the story, i just got into the gaming pc world after ditching console, Im on a really tight budget for now as I'm unemployed and in 11th grade but my price range is atleast up to $130 on parts. I bought an dell inspirion 530 for $45. It came with a Nvidia Geforce Gt240 graphics card, 550w power supply, intel duo 2 core e8500 3.16ghz, 80gb hard drive, 4gb ram, dell 0ry007 mobo. (MICRO ATX FORM FACTOR) upated

I was thinking of throwing in AMD A10-5800k Quad-Core APU/Processor 3.8GHz (4.2GHz turbo) and Gigabyte F2A68HM-H FM2 and 16gb ram for $61 and a gtx 770 from eBay. Will this be a decent build for titles like bo2 and bf4 in medium settings? Will I need a new power supply for these upgrades? Will it bottleneck during gaming? Will I need a new hdd for games and files?

Dont get the A10. That is a dead platform. For about $200 you can get a 2200g/mobo/8gb of RAM. Use the iGPU on the CPU for awhile til you scrap together enough cash for a new GPU and you will be good to go. You can use your PSU and HDD. Just do a clean install of windows.
