And is there a way to still make it a little bit cheaper but still play games well?

Agreed with above poster. If you're looking for a bit of longevity, consider upgrading the GPU to at least a 7870. Even if you have to shell out a few more bucks. 2014 games are going to be heavy on the GPU from what I have been reading.
