PC Gaming Budget Build Feedback

[Shadeslayer110]

Hi,
I want to build a new PC over the summer and wanted to know how it is. I want to use it for modern games, such as Titanfall, Skyrim, and Dark Souls 2 with decent graphics and a good fps rate, schoolwork, some video editing, and programs such as CryEngine. If there is anything that you can recommend for same/lower price that is better, feel free to let me know!

I suggest getting a higher wattage PSU, Cuz i have a feeling your going to run out of wattage.

Get like a 650 wattage PSU. Like this http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-power-supply-120pg0650gr

Also get this Ram, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA0ST08P6214&cm_re=avexir-_-9SIA0ST08P6214-_-Product Its the same performance as the one u listed but cheaper cuz its on Sale

I would highly suggest windows 8.1 as the licensing terms are much better and the back end is improved unless you still want media center or something specific that 8 dropped. Start menu/UI is easy to fix so not really a good reason. but your call
