    What help are you looking for, exactly? There isn't a question >.>

    That said... For that price, you could probably do a LOT better. I'd suggest filling out the build sticky.

    THAT said.. I'd recommend against the CPU and board... 8gb ram is enough.. and the GPU is really poor. Also, what brand PSU?

    In the meantime, moving this to the Build/Upgrade sub-forum!

    Ah, I'm not sure what the PSU is. I'm just copy and pasted the specs from this independent computer shop near me.
    I probably could do better buying my own parts though. I just need a new gaming computer that's not too expensive. $600-$800 is my budget.

    I'll go check out that sticky.
