I created a build for a budget gaming PC, and wanted to get some input on it. This is my first time building a PC, so I'm not the greatest at picking out parts and what not. I want to stay around the $600 range, and that includes OS, keyboard, mouse, and wireless network card. I have a few questions about the build that I made. Will it decently run recent video games such as Fallout 4, Black Ops 3, etc.? Also, are there any parts that I could change out in my build that would make it a better computer without making the computer cost anymore? I'm really pushing it with the price of the current build, which lands at $660.
