I'm looking for a good computer to play games on high settings at 1080p. I'm looking for a good processor (preferably Intel) a good GPU, and a nice colourful/good case. If anyone can do this cor me I thank you soo much. ( i3 or i5)

i5's not going to happen on a $500 budget. You could go with an i3, but the pentium G3258 is a much better value(it's what I have). I have had no problems with it bottlenecking my 270x.
Here it is.

R7 260x is a pretty good card for 1080p, g3258 won't bottleneck it, the motherboard has a built in overclocking tool(press P on startup) and you can overclock the g3258 in a few seconds to up to 4 ghz. 4 gigs of ram should be enough. getting four more is like $20 so if you need to in the future you can.
