I need a good gaming PC in the $600 price range.

I don't need to run anything major like BF4.

NONE! There is no pre built gaming pc for $600 that in my opinion will satisfy

just add $220 to your budget and you will be gaming on high presets at 1080p resolutions

Lower your graphics card to GTX 660 and tweak a little here and there and this could definitely be around 600 dollars

Some of those parts are a bit overpriced, you don't need an 80+ gold PSU for example

Without OS and CPU cooler
