Hi
I'm trying to get into PC gaming and I've planned my first PC build.I have been a console gamer before but I needed a new PC so I chose to build one myself.I've had an XBOX 360 before but its finally time to upgrade.I need something that'll run anything I throw at it at 1080p atleast for the next 3 years.Here's what I've finally come to:

My budget is 800$ but I don't live in the USA.Getting parts here in the UAE isn't quite easy and the builds costs 662$ but after getting everything here,it costs around 800$.Anyways,is this build good enough?I'm also trying to make my PC look good and I'm sticking to a red and black color scheme.Thanks.
