I know that it's really bad to buy them not at the same time, but i'm really bad at saving so i'll have to do so.

Uses: Gaming, and programming.

it is a pretty good budget build. should be fine, but don't expect maxing games at 60FPS

Bigger Power supply, and personally I would drop the video card n get an SSD and maybe an i5

 

if not then lower the graphics card n get the SSD its a mandatory thing now a days, since I put my SSD in I can instantly tell the diff between SSD/HDD

What games could the GPU play?

I don't want "fine" what do you think I could downgrade in order to get a better GPU?

for a $500 build its unlikely you would be able to get a better gpu or cpu by changing anything. at 1080p you will easily be able to get highish settings if you want further details watch the video linus has

Ok thank you so much for helping me out.

If you can push $40 more on there (unless Canada has dumb scaling), you could get an 8GB (single) module of RAM.
Otherwise, this is pretty much the best you can do (Maybe unless you switch to team red).

By the red team you mean AMD right? Why don't you try making a rig and PM it to me to see if it's better

Actually, I'm not sure about a comparative CPU solution, sorry

 

But there are a few upgrades in mind (if you're willing to push budget a little)

RAM: Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB (1 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory (or any decent brand)

GPU: Gigabyte R7 265 2GB

go for 760K and you will be better off with 8GB of RAM and no need for a DVD drive
