Hello, I need help planning parts for my gf who is just an entry level gamer. Graphics isn't important, just as long as it runs well (no lag). She likes Csgo, COD, Battlefield, DayZ, WoW, APB:reloaded (a free to play game on steam that I don't expect you guys to know of lol). I already have a monitor, operating system (on a flash drive), mouse and keyboard, just need help with the desktop itself. I want to stay in between $400 - $450 in Canadian dollars... Lol I know that that may seem outragous and difficult but I was hoping you guys can tell me if this build is acceptable and won't bottleneck. Be free to tweek things here and there. I'm not familiar with oc'ing but for getting the cheapest I can get I guess I will have to learn how. Maybe you guys can share some knowledge and tips on oc'ing as well?

Please let me know if I've made good decisions.
Thanks guys!

Admirable


Decent build, but I would suggest switching to a GTX 950 if it still within your budget.
