Would you consider this a modern gaming PC capable of playing the latest games at 1080p? (eg. Battlefield 1, Ghost Recon Wildlands, Mass Effect Andromeda, etc..)
Core i5-2500
ASUS Strix RX 470 4GB OC
8GB DDR3 1600 CL9
Intel DZ77SL-50K Z77 mobo
Kingston HyperX 240GB SSD
2TB 7,200RPM HDD
EVGA 500B
I turned my main rig in to a mining rig and basically had everything else laying around not being used except the CPU($47.67 on Ebay) and mobo($40 from a friend), with the exception of the GPU, which is currently in my mining rig that I will borrow from. Waiting on the CPU to arrive so I can get it up and running, expecting to use it as my main gaming system for a few months. I would have liked to get the 2500K, but it was roughly $32 more.
I have 2 MSI RX 480 4GB (reference) cards I could use one of those, but I figured with the i5-2500 the RX 470 would be good enough. Just wanting some feedback I suppose.
*My main rig used to be an i7-4790K + GTX 1060 6GB, but no longer own those parts.

Should be easy to swap them out without changing drivers.
