im building my first gaming pc because i have been using my pc for about 3 years now. I was wondering whether this will be good for the next 2-3 years because money is tight here. I only play LoL and NBA2k but i plan on playing elder scrolls, borderlines, dota 2 and battlefield. i dont know much but they say that 50fps is good on these games?

here is my build:
