I know this may be a lot to ask but I would like if someone if could build me the best gaming pc under $600 usd because I don't know much about pc and if you could also do it on pcpartpicker.com that would be amazing. I prefer intel over amd and I don't care whether it's amd or nividia for the graphics. Thank you in advance.

Yeah. A GPU that won't max modern games will be how relevant in a few years? If OP saved a little more he could get something infinitely better

The pentium would bottleneck a 770. I see you also increased your budget to $700, unless part prices changed drastically overnight.
