- Hello everyone,

So my friend who is a console gamer now wants to become a pc gamer. He said that he wants to be able to play games such as GTA V, H1Z1 CS: GO and other popular games to like console playability. I do not know whether this is a good build, but I am looking for getting around 280-300fps on CS: GO on 1080p and that would be able to max out certain games while still making them playable at least to the human eye. Here's what I have so far. https://pcpartpicker.com/user/CheezPizza12345/saved/#view=d8Vypg
The budget is around 500 dollars.

- Thanks,
Cheez
