Is this good for gaming

What are your EXPECTATIONS, and GOALS for this build?
Basic computer, yeah. Good for Minecraft, Poker, and other light gaming sure.
Want to play PlayerUnknown BattleGrounds in 1080P 60FPS? - NO WAY.

If your budget is $300, you best BANG per dollar is head to Gamestop and get a Refurb PS4. Not only will it play all GAMES current and NEW, but play then AS ADVERTISED, most in 60FPS, and very nice graphics. PLUS you get a BluRay Player, Vibrating Wireless Controller, Mike headset, etc. which is (I priced it for PC before) about another $400 onto your build for the same stuff.

If your PC gaming, the 'standard' system is a i5, 8GB RAM, 1TB Drive (best with a SSD for the OS), and 1060 or better (can drop down to 1050Ti if need be) and be around the $700 price mark to achieve 'normal' expected game play performance.
 


Decent enough.

Though I would change the GPU to an RX 460 and like someone said, 2x4GB instead of 1 8GB.

Tom tancredi thanks for your comment and sorry for the down vote i did it by mistake... my budget is 350-400 for the PC parts I have a setup. I don't really enjoy playing on PS4,xbox.

I also need a desktop for school so I have to stick with it even if it's not that good. Thank you again

If you can spare another $20 in your budget, I request you to look at this build and consider this: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/YpRYBP

You should go for G4620 for the better clock, rx 460 4gb for a budget gpu and good performance that can run games today averagely, and as everyone said, a dual channel as it may throttle your pc performance higher than it should with a single channel ram. I think that's it. :D
