Hello all,
I'm a first time PC builder and am considering my options when it comes to building my first rig. I would like to try and keep my build between $500 and $700. I am looking to have a living room set up as I want to us my 55" 1080p tv as a display for the time being. I am hoping for 1080p high or ultra settings on most if not all games. I was really just wondering if the parts I was considering would be able to produce what I was looking for? I have also considered getting a SSD as well but was not sure if it was necessary for my build. As I said before I'm new and am trying to learn more about PC's so any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!!!

My current parts list:
-CPU - Intel Core i3-6100 3.70 GHz Processor
-GPU - EVGA NVIDA GTX 960 4GB
-Ram - Kingston HyperX 4GB RAM (x2)
-Motherboard - ASUS H110M-A LGA 1151 Intel H110 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s = $60
USB 3.0
-Hard Drive – Seagate 1TB 7200RPM 3.5 Inch
-Power - EVGA 500 B1, 80+ BRONZE 500W
-Case - Corsair 100R
-OS - Windows 10

This has everything you need however it is also slightly over budget and awhile I can lower it you'd lose quite alot of performance.

True but for how cheap it is he might aswell run it cooler than having a screaming stock cooler in, I know if I had my stock cooler much longer even at stock I'd have gone insane.
