500 Dollar PC

[KGohr2k19]

My mom and sister told me earlier today that my mom was spending 500 on each of us for christmas and Im taking the opportunity to get parts to build a half decent gaming pc. If anyone can send a list of the best bang for buck pc oarts that add up to about 500 USD would greatly appreciated

So only PC in this budget? What settings for those games?

Does it matter? I'm guessing the answer is "as high as possible for 500 dollars".
