Should this budget build be good enough for 40-60fps gaming on 720p or 1080p?

[LotzaLemons]

Hello, if someone could take a moment to look over this build, it would be greatly appreciated.

My Build

Some games I am probably going to be playing on this pc are: The Witcher 3, L4D2, GTA5, Overwatch, and Skyrim. 

Are there any parts I should switch out for better ones and still stay within about a $530ish budget? (Budget of hardware, not including OS)

this will do 1080p maxed out, however if i was you i would get windows off kinguin and get a 120/240gb ssd instead of a 1tb hard drive. You can add a hard drive later and you will benefit greatly from an ssd

Exactly

this will do 1080p high definatly, the weak point is the CPU though so think about upgradeing that first here and also a SSD would be a nice thing to have there just for the boot times

250gb is small for gaming. not worth it.

Would it be okay if I just added a super cheap SSD with like 60gb and kept the 1TB? Because I will need to use about 150gb right off the bat, I currently have a laptop I use for gaming and it has a bunch of steam games downloaded onto it currently, so once I get this desktop built, I'm going to need to transfer those games. I assume I'll just be using the SSD mainly for the OS though right?

If that's all you want to use it for, get a boot drive ssd (60-120gb)  but it has the greatest effect on the games actually stored on it.  Take it from me, I only have 256GB of storage (850 pro) and its totally manageable
