for only about $40~$50 more you can get a much better budget computer with an actual gaming card in it instead of a card meant for computers that do not have any or need another monitor or something like that or the R7 250 is a budget card and does not do well in games while the R9 series is meant for gaming ... in that i also changed the motherboard to one which actually has USB3.0 ports so you can use the front ports on the case that i also changed to basically the black version of what you selected but cheaper as it was black not red.

It should run most anything that you want to play at at least medium if not high at about 1080p or 1440p just remember to upgrade the video card and power supply when you go to 4k and its all good.
