I'm not really the best on judging PC's or any kind of build. So I was just wanting to post my rig on here and see what everyone thinks of it. Is it good for playing games like SWTOR and Overwatch????

-GeForce GTX 950: 2GB video RAM
-AMD FX(tm)-6300 Six-Core Processor
-RAM:8GB
-550w psu

If there is anything that you think I can do to even better my PC, please let me know.

For the games you want it's fine, there is nothing you can make better without changing out the full system really to make it worth spending money on the upgrade. It's fine for gaming at low-medium settings in newer games.
You can spend $200 on a faster video card, but your CPU will hold back the system a bit in many games.
You can spend $300 on a i5 CPU and motherboard, but then your video card would need an upgrade to match things.

If you have about $300, sell your system, build a new one with an Intel i5-6500 CPU and the RX 470 card or GTX 1060 3GB card. Anything outside of that...


Do you already have this or are you planning on buying the parts?

Need a budget for the system. For lower end gaming it's OK but you are at the lower end of gaming today, in 2-3 years you will be bellow spec for anything over low on lower resolution. Better to spend another $200 now and get a system that will run well today and still be OK in a year or two.
 
7/10 because it's high enough spec to play those games, 5/10 because you'll be limited to what games you can play at high settings. 6/10 overall.

Really though, it only matters what's good enough for you. It doesn't make much sense to ask others, whom will most always have different priorities.

Maybe an Xbox one would be something to consider
 

Or use what he's got for a year, save a bit, and sell it and get a scorpio.
