Will This Build Work Good For Gaming?

[SpectreFlame]

I'm planning on making a $500 gaming computer(including the OS). If anyone has some other builds that would've better for about $500 please tell me(mine went over budget) and can you tell me if my current parts are compatible. I also have to get a monitor, keyboard, and a mouse which im good with the ones i linked. My total was $589.88. So I was above but if this is as good of bang for my buck on this price area I'm good with the higher price tag( but is still want to stay at around $500 and no more than $600 if possible).Thanks in advance.

If you're really interested in gaming, I'd look into buying a cheaper processor/mobo combination which would free up some more money to spend on a video card. The card you have there is pretty weak if you plan to do any gaming on higher settings.

Processor/mobo suggestions;
Intel G860: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/intel-cpu-bx80623g860
MSI H61: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-motherboard-h61me33w8

This would give you approx. $50 more for the video card and you'd get roughly the same performance from the CPU in games. I'm not sure what video cards are best at the $70-80 range though.

Thanks ill take a look at that and yeah I was worried it was to weak

 

[chain220]

Yeah, it is a little bit. I'd suggest probably looking at a 460. That could be sufficient for decent gaming. Though, as I said I'm not really familiar with the card in that price range so I really don't know.

 

[SpectreFlame]

Ok and that intel core looks really good for this on price especially. Thanks for the help.

a used Radeon 6870 can be had for $80 or on Ebay
