Looking for a good $600 gaming pc

[toms_hardware468]

I am looking into building a gaming pc for the first time, but I don't really know what would be the best parts to play some of the newer games out for around $600. If anyone is able to give me a list of parts, that would be great! Also, the OS, optical drive, wireless adapter, monitor and all that stuff will be a separate price, the $600 will be for just the case and components. And if you are able to tell me how much fps I can get and on what settings with your list of parts, that would be very helpful. Also, if you are using pcpartpicker.com (which most likely, you are 😛) could you please make sure there are no computability errors with any of the parts, because on other sites, people gave me lists with a few errors, but I doubt anyone here will leave errors, thanks guys! 😀
