This is my first build and I am kinda on a budget. I know almost nothing about building computers so I was hoping for some help from someone with a little experience. I made this for the purpose of running newer games, like ArmA III and Battlefield, at medium while maintaining a decent fps. I don't know if it actually will, so I came to ask. Is this desktop 100% compatible? Can it be improved for little cost? Will it work for new games? The build: http://pcpartpicker.com/b/GJM8TW Thanks

Issues:

You have an APU paired with a GPU. This is a no-no. You want a CPU like the Athlon 750k.

Drop the CPU cooler and use the saved money for a better GPU.

That is a server HDD with sleep states. You DO NOT ant to use that for the OS. Get a standard HDD like a WD blue.

Thank you so much. I am very nervous about this because I know builds can go wrong very easily. I made the changes. Does this look better? http://pcpartpicker.com/b/GJM8TW
