So i am planning a build for my Cousin.
I am giving him my components and will it handle nowadays games like Battlefield 4 COD AW
i will be buying some components written below
But i planned this for him



CPU- Intel E8400 3.0 GHz Wolfdale
RAM- 6GB DDR2 667 MHz
GPU- Powercolor R7 240 DDR5 2 GB
PSU- 450 WATT
HDD- 1TB SEAGATE


So is this a good match of components ? I am tight on a budget also Because i have to get GTX 960 for my RIG.
If you can see any other Components but within price of written one DO TELL ME .

The e8400 was a great CPU back in the day, no doubt :)

So it looks like you are planning to spend the $90 on 4gb of ram and an r7 240?

I think you would be better served getting 2gb ram (to bring it to 4gb total) and an r7 250 or 250x

I was thinking of getting one like r7 250 or HD series but the PCI-E slot is 16x Version 1.1
and 250x is a 3.0 and i don't see that is compatible backwards .
