Is an i5 4590k and GTX 960 Good for gaming?

[NeedSumMilk]

Hi im 13 and I decided to make a build your own Gaming computer. I have a budget of about $700 so it is not going to be a crazy alienware type pc but I was wondering sense it is 2016 will a i5 4590 paired with a GTX 960 gpu going to be a good setup? I looked up BF4 gameplay of this setup and it ran smooth on ultra settings but that was a while ago please tell me if iwill be okay with my setup thanks.

It is a pretty decent combo and will do just fine for BF4, you could also look at r9 380, as it is about the same price and performs a bit better

With that budget you can make a better PC then alienwear. Also you don't need a fancy i7 gtx titan for gaming. That is for supercomputers etc. Basically get a quad core i5 processor, 8gb of ram, and a decent graphics card and you are good to go. The gtx 960 is a good starter card and will run all games at Medium-High settings. It will run some older games on ultra. Most games will run at high at 50-60 fps which is very playable. The i5 4590 is a good CPU and will handle all modern games. However you won't be able to overclock it but that is not necessary for most games. Get those components and you will have a nice gaming PC!

Sorry, I did not realize the post was dead. I did not check the date when it was posted and didn't know if the OP still needed help or not. I was just trying to answer some threads since I always ask questions and never provide answers. My bad!
