This a good pc build?
http://www.build-gaming-computers.com/gaming-desktop-co... the one I'm getting is the budget build for about $600. I already have a monitor, keyboard, and mouse. Also this is my first build so any help is greatly appreciated :) 
Edit: I forgot to mention that if I can I'll get this video card http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-SuperClocked-Dual-Link-Graph... instead of the one on the website.
