this is what i got, but I want to add a cpu cooler, and an optical drive. I need the price to go lower as well, the build is mainly to play games like WoW and games like that, any downgrades to make the price a bit cheaper while adding the cooler. The build is mainly to play games without lag on normal or medium settings. 


**Edit***
So, the build is for a friend, she mostly plays  games that dont require much, such as cod and WoW, she wants a 120 gb ssd, decent graphics, with no lagg. The budget is ~$600,  What can you guys show me thats decent for my requirements? 
Any builds, just shoot me! :D

First of all, at that price point you better go AMD, second, you dont need an after market CPU cooler unless you plan to overclock, which your CPU of choice and Mobo dont really support. Games like WOW dont require much power so you wont get lag unless your internet connection is not good :P

This will save you $70-$80 dollars, try to get it under $25.  Many people (including me) found this to work easily, though there have been a few reports of it not working.

You could try using a r9 270 instead,  I've seen some as low as $140.

Benchmarks of MSI Twin Frozr R9 270 vs a reference R9 270x are at around 5:00;  Both were overclocked.
