My aim is to make a gaming PC to beat the next gen consoles.
I am trying to make it around $600 but I am having a bit of trouble.
Because I live in Australia everything is heaps more expensive than America.
Can anybody suggest any way to make this a cheaper build?
I want to be able to play most games from low to medium with 30+ fps.
Thanks to anybody who answers.

A better gpu,for your (niko24) build as for mine,
http://au.pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-video-card-r9270gam...
yours will be cheaper,mine will be more expensive,even more than the original one,but imo better because of the i3.
I still think that the hd 7790 is a fine choice though for the settings the o.p. wants.
A blend from your and my build,

If you have a pre-build computer that is <4 yrs old then I would just use that and put in a evga 750ti FTW card so you don't have to change out the PSU and it will still be better then xbox1/ps4.
