My PC will be used for gaming and I'm on a tight budget. My Soft budget is $400, and my hard budget is $500.

My BF has the computer. I just need to buy certain parts for the rig. I just need a CPU, Cooler, Motherboard, Graphics Card, Memory, and Power Supply. And his computer his really big, so any suggestions for a motherboard, has to be ATX.

Also, the Graphics card, I selected is a Radeon R7 260X 2GB. I couldn't find it in PC part picker, but I found it at tiger direct for $99.99.
