I'm looking to build my first pc. Trying to keep it below $600. Could you give this a look and let me know how well it fairs or anything I might want to change?

I'm mainly just looking to play games like Overwatch and WoW - Legion and with decent settings. Would this set up work for that?

Thank you

I didn't seem to find it when I first looked.

So the two problems I see with this are the CPU and the case. They'll work fine together, but the Pentium G4560 is basically an i3 with lower clocks and lesser built-in graphics. The performance is really close. Either get a B250+G4560 or a 6100+H110, the 6100 will be $30 more for about 5% performance increase.

Above the $40-50 price point in cases you're basically paying for flashyness and I'd honestly point you to a Fractal Design Define case at that range, or talk you down to Corsair 88R, Cooler Master N200, Fractal Core 1000 USB3, etc.
