I was thinking of building this PC for gaming:http://pcpartpicker.com/user/JJames75/saved/CkWfrH

What games do you guys think this can run and on what settings?

Honestly, for that price, that build is a killer. Obviously gone for an all AMD layout, which is going to be cheaper then and intel + nvidia build per say. Nice build overall.

I picked a psu I feel more confident in. The price difference is only +$5.
