So I'm what you may call a complete retard when it comes to this, but I want to make my own gaming PC as I'm on a tight budget and heard it's cheaper to make then to buy.
I was clueless but then I found a site named pcpartpicker.
I'd like your opinion as to if this is a decent pc and what would I be able to run with it?

Hoping to get something around 500-600, I had an 800 limit and that's including a monitor. Minimum mail-in rebates please.
