Will this PC perform good for games like CS:GO and Battle Field 4?

I'd like to get CS:GO 150-200FPS
Battlefield 60-120FPS.

Would I need to increase or decrease my budget to get what i would like?

This is a much more cost-effective build for about $40 more. CS:GO will be a very easy to handle game, but Battlefield 4 is a lot more intensive. You'll really appreciate the 8 core AMD CPU and the more powerful R9 280X in your build for proper gaming in Battlefield 4. 6 AMD cores is a little underpowered, and the GTX 760 is a good GPU but the R9 280X is much heftier.

I also replaced your RAM, so you'll have a good DDR3-1866 at a cheaper price with good CAS latency, and I changed the power supply to something just as reputable with plenty of room for upgrades as well. Enjoy!

What resolution and setting do you want to play at?

I plan on 1280x960, or what do you recommend?

Do you think battlefield i'll get 60fps?

Thank you for the upgrades, i'm not to familiar with computers and it seems way better coming from someone who does.

Easily @ 1280x960. That build should get 60+ @ 1080p.

Woah, 1280x960? Then the build I suggested (as well as the initial build you had) is majorly overkill! You can certainly expect a smooth constant 60 fps for every single game at that resolution at the maximum settings. The build I recommend is meant for a 1920x1080 resolution, and the build you initially had is also meant for that resolution as well, but it wouldn't be quite as smooth.

You can actually cutback on the parts a lot if you expect to play at that resolution, but I recommend that you buy the build I suggested and then when the time is right, upgrade your monitor to a 1920x1080. A good, 21" 1920x1080 monitor is anywhere from $120 - $180, and can go higher than that but that's a pretty good price range to stay in for that size and resolution.

I actually did something similar to you. My current build is extremely similar to yours, but I only had a crappy HDTV from 2007 to play on at first and I was playing at 1280x720 for the first few weeks after I built it. Every game was a constant 60 fps at the maximum settings (technically it was much higher than 60 fps, but on a 60 Hz monitor you won't notice anything more than 60 fps) and it was awesome, but the resolution still felt lacking. When I finally upgraded to a 1920x1080 monitor, the difference was astounding. Even though I may have dropped below 60 at some points on a few games, the overall quality was still incredible and it was totally worth the couple fps I lost.

So yeah, I recommend you get the build I recommended and then in future, do what I did and save up enough money for a nice 1920x1080 monitor.

I'll use the 1920x1080. I'm not sure which one I was just guessing as one. That sounds like what I'll use. I like over kill just because I don't have to nag the wife about buying a PC again lol

This. That graphics card will definitely run Battlefield 3/4 on decent settings.
