Will this build be good for games such as Csgo, Garrys mod, World at war, maybe DayZ. http://pcpartpicker.com/list/pNhPnn

Yes just get a better psu. $14 more will get you a very good Seasonic S12II 520w Bronze. Much more reliable.

the psu is good u have 2 thing to look for ore u need to get a great cpu cooler because a i3 at 3,7ghz is giong to get a bit hot ore add a few buck and get yourselfe a i5

I disagree with both of those points. The stock cooler is perfectly fine. The psu is not.

he hase a 600 watt powersupply thats more than enoug even 500 watt would be enoug and the stockcooler is not got for gaming its just not made for long load time

the only thing bad about this psu is that it is not modulare but thats not a big deal

It was never about the psu's wattage. Of course 600w is enough. It's about the quality of the psu. That 600w EVGA is not a very reliable psu. He doesn't need to buy a below average psu when he can pay just a little more and get one that will outlast all of his other parts.

still paying 30 more bucks for the same psu is not a good idee most psu will outlest eny compenent

The psu I recommended is $14 more. And no, the psu is usually the first thing to go, is usually the source of most hardware problems, and is usually the first thing to be upgraded all thanks to making a poor choice from the start.

if u say so mean i repair a lot of pc and the psu dies sometimes but not in 4/5 years in 4/5 year a gpu is also needing a replace and jes a cpu doest died as soon but still a psu will easly last 4 years

Kjeld_ :

Depends on the quality of the PSU. If it uses cheap capacitors it's life expectancy will be low. If a lower quality PSU is put under a heavier load or in a hot environment this will also reduce the PSU's usable life span. The 600b while not garbage quality still isn't very good as it uses mediocre secondary capacitors and expecting it to last 4-5 years is a stretch, even in a lower powered system like the OPs proposed build it may make its 3 year warranty period if kept in a cool environment. If it were me I'd spend an extra $10 and get the 520w Seasonic S12II. With an i3 and a GTX 950 even the 430w version would be ok.
