Hello, I am looking for help with picking the parts for my first gaming PC and I hope I've come to the right place. My budget is around $500-$600 (this would also include a monitor, keyboard, and Windows). I have been messing around with a few different components on PCPartPicker and I have finally gotten to this: http://pcpartpicker.com/list/mRbjcc. Now, my budget is probably a little closer to $500 as PCPartPicker finds the BEST prices and I would be ordering from Amazon so it would be slightly more. I would greatly appreciate it if you guys could give me some feedback and maybe some advice on how to lower the price a bit. Thanks!

That's as low budget as you can honesty go. Basically not possible to buy a monitor, keyboard, and OS and still build a sub $500 gaming PC if you think you might have some more money to spend later I can make a suggestion that can be upgraded later to be an actual gaming rig

Only using newegg for cpu as Amazon doesn't have it available atm. This is capable of scaling as your needs do but will be okay on games right now
