I need a PC in the $500 range, this is US currency! I am going to upgrade it overtime, and no need for a DVD DRIVE! Make it as good as you can for the money, I would like to run just about all current games, and future games. Thanks!

Edit: No need for keyboard/mouse/monitor. Just the tower.

This is just a suggestion but if possible try to get an extra $50 and upgrade to the r9 270x, Ive use the 4GB version of that card and it is amazing.

Thanks guys! I am working this summer so don't know how much I am going to get exactly, but I still have to get an OS if I cant find one from a friend/family. You can make it around $550 if you need to, and if it makes the PC that much better. Thanks again!

If you can afford the extra $50 (or saving some money by getting the OS a free way.) you can get this. [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Yeah, not too sure how much I will be making exactly, but I'll probably be getting this, or Terrabytez build. Thanks dude, also will that processor you picked be able to run all games out now, and games in the future. I want a PC that can run BF4 on High settings, and I know it is possible because Austin Evans did a $500 build that ran it just fine at high.

The i5 I provided should outperform the FX6300 overall including gaming (even better for games like DayZ). The CPU is also current gen (Unless you count the Refresh) and is not on "dead" socket like the FX series. The R9 270 is more powerful than the R9 260X, the build will out perform the "Photon" in every aspect. This is also a good option which favors gaming [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] (Better GPU, weaker CPU). I would probably choose the first build, because of the CPU and less power consumption. (The latter one could be stressing the PSU and might no be the safest way.)
