First let me say that yes I know its better to build a gaming pc rather buy one but because its my first time I have not the patience or knowledge to build one.The main reason I wanted to post this is to ask if the pc I plan to buy can play overwatch.gta5 and or battlefield 1 so Im going to list its specs and also I should mention that im just copy pasting them because I dont know what info could be considered as useful so apologies in advance:
Intel Core i5-7400 (6M Cache, 3.0 GHz LGA 1151) box
MB Gigabute GA-B250M-D3H (v1.0) LGA1151
8 GB DDR4 RAM
1000 GB HDD
DVD-RW
graphic card:VGA Point of View nVidia GT740-1GB/DDR5/128bit/DVI/HDMI/D-Sub/(VGA-740-A2-1024)
and yes I know that I can search it on game debate or can I run this but I still want to know what the community thinks if thats possible
thank you in advance
Edit:I thank the community for helping me with my problem but now I have three more questions to ask
1:Can you guys recommend any pc that can play the games that I mentioned above that is below 574 dollars and keep in mind that I live in a small country in Europe (think its important to mention but dont know)
2:Can I just buy the pc (because it doesnt come with a graphic card)and buy the graphic card separately and put it in the pc
3:Can I put any graphic card in the pc or is there some specific graphic card for it.
Again thank you

I wouldn't recommend it. All 3 of those games you mentioned list a GTX 660 as minimum GPU requirement, and the GT 740 has barely more than 1/3 that power.

It's really not hard to build your own PC anymore. It's literally just plugging together about 7 parts that only fit one way. The most common problems first time PC gamers face is operating and maintaining the PC, which is actually more complex than just assembling the parts.

Fear of the unknown is the primary reason many buy prebuilts that are under powered for the games they're playing. The solution is watching some assembly videos to see how easy it is.

No, not with the GT 740. In the Nvidia lineup, you need to look for the GTX prefix for a graphics card.
The GT 740 will let you game, but at much reduced settings. And some games need more than 1GB VRAM. So that particular GT 740 is a no-go.
