Hi, I've recently decided I'm going to build my own PC. I want to run games like DayZ, Arma 3, Rust, etc. I don't wan't a monster of a PC just one that will run these games. My budget is around 500-800 dollars.

It's got a more powerful GPU, and a more reliable PSU as well. Plus a nice case for any build.

only criticism about this build is that you got the regular Windforce, which doesn't have a backplate on it. plus will be a bit big in the N200...

And the fact that your going to need a BIOS flash...

4440 will perform the same and won't give you the headache of a bios flash.
