Would someone please help me put together a Rig for $600 Total Cost, Maybe light/mild gaming. Mostly for pictures/business purpose. (Still would like to be able to play something with no issue if possible though)

The most important part is I need it to last me for at least 4-5 years hopefully.

Don't need OS/Mouse/Keyboard/Monitor

Would prefer to get a SSD in it to help with transfers/file moving/start up etc.

No OCing needed obviously :)

No Water Cooling needed.

With any of the Deals that are about to come out or out right now so I can get the best for the buck! Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks, and Happy Thanksgiving to all of you out there.

Here's a start.

i3 is the Home/business CPU but can game.
The GPU is the best value for money at the moment, but more than you need.
Ths PSU is the same, great value, but bigger than you need, and nothing cheaper is better.
 
Power Color specializes in Radeon GPUs and is a respected brand.

I like mine better still. The CPU is a push depending on threading, My SSD is bigger, my motherboard is more modern, and my GPU is better and it's cheaper, and my memory configuration is superior.

What part of my build would you like changed? Are you concerned about the CPU, GPU?

I need an optical drive on it, mainly concerned about the GPU as I have read alot of bad things about powercolor.....

Also I only like buying from Amazon generally I forgot to mention that, because I have free prime 2 day shipping.

My build is only Amazon on my end, cause I only have that merchant selected. If you click it and don't have it specifically checked off, it will show you everything cheaper everywhere.
