I'm trying build my first gaming computer and have no idea on where to start. So I was wondering what's the best gaming computer I can make with 600 dollars. I would like to play games like titanfall and upcoming games any suggestions ?

Not in my opinion i prefer to use a nvidia or amd card to any intergrated.
 
Intel HD Graphics are NOT meant for gaming. You will be wondering why your $600 computer can't play any games.

This will play games MUCH MUCH BETTER.
 


Add one of these as well if you feel like picking up an ssd for $70

I wouldn't get that. The previous version of that SSD was good, but then Kingston decided to change some part of it without any notice to the public. Now, that drive is unreliable and I would seriously spend an extra $10-20 for a more reliable drive.
