Hello!

I am curious if this is a good setup that I am getting, I am pretty dumb when it comes to computers, and honestly I dont want to spend a whole ton. Building a computer piece by piece is not viable option for me. I would love to play open world games like H1z1, and eventually explore into more graphic demanding games in the future. I would also like to stream as well to twitch. I would like the ability to hook up multiple monitors and some play around room to upgrade in the future as well.

Please let me know what you think..

A good 650W PSU will be more than enough for a mid level GPU and while a good 430W PSU will still power up your components, why would you want your PSU run at over 70% of it's power when for a few extra bucks you can get something more powerful and have peace of mind.
for the money it a very weak gaming pc. it has a under sized power supply at 600w. a good gaming pc would be 750w there not much more. wit ha larger power supply you could put in a higher end gpu or sli to slower end gpu. there no ssd as the boot os. and the video card is weak a 750ti is an entry level gpu for 40-50 more they could put in a 960gpu. if you locked on funds right now get a pc with an h170mb and a non k cpu. use the money for a better gpu and ssd.

Its not a good gaming pc for the price. A good rule of thumb for gaming PCs: the gpu will cost about 1/3 of the total price.
You could always buy a $750 gaming pc with a decent cpu and put a 750ti for the same price.

Hey, even good 430w psu can be in good gaming pc, more watts doesn't mean better psu, you know,
good 430W > cheap 850W

Hi, I'm just telling this because 90% of build I see use 700W+ psu, but the pc can't use even the half ...
 


While it is true its using not even half of it's power, it gives you peace of mind and you can upgrade in the future without needing to get a different PSU.
