Thanks for replying .But Don't you think that the processor will start bottle necking the gpu?Please suggest me some i5 Or AMD Build which will be future proof for about 2years(will be playing at 900p).You dont need to add HDD or A cabinet..Thanks..

The i3 does pretty good in gaming, but there are some odd things in that build, for $550 i'd go for this instead:

I was legitimately suggesting an xbox one and TV then realized you said excluding the monitor and peripherals. Sorry.

What I didn't understand what you said.

I actually just realized you said excluding the monitor and peripherals. Sorry. In that case drop the minitor and mouse and keyboard combo and get an i3 and a R9 270X.
