I made another post on May 22,2014 and during that time I have earned more money till today. I picked the perfect build and wanted to see if you can upgrade it so it could run better and be better. I have $760 and only can go up to $780 which is the limit. I want a pc to play old and new games which run good like Age of Empires 2, Battlefield 4, Warframe and etc. The lowest hard drive space would be 1 TB and only one TB. I black pc case only, computer parts only including wifi router and no OS. I'm looking for suggestion and I hope to see lots of parts. Thank you and please share this.

Please provide a link

hehe, I've play AoE awhile on many different computers. It all works the same since it's such an old game.

Your GPU should give you around 40FPS

Could you give the permalink to your build? it would be easier to edit

This is a better brand PSU and 500w will be fine for your build.

Do you have to buy from amazon only? From what I see lots of their parts are $5-10 more than other places. That could give you a better CPU/Mobo since fm2 socket is dead :/

It probably will be lower than what the benchmark suggests because you're going to be using an Athlon.
