That is what i have made. i do need a Monitor, however i do have a Hard Drive so that is not needed. https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198092676089/games/ <--------- steam library. I would like to play these games at 1080p 60fps at low-medium and even high on a few games. I chose m-itx because i need a small computer.

looks great. I would add an ssd as they are getting cheaper every day and add a noticeable difference, even if its a 120gb ssd

For the SSD a MX100 is a good SSD which isn't super expensive. Also rest looks good, the GPU is fine I think it has near the same performance of a GTX760 which I got and I can run a fair bit of games on high at 60 fps. Looked at some benchmarks and yeah that card will definitely do fine.

The cheaper hte btter. an ssd will be the future update after i get the pc.

I would overclock the CPU to get the best performance out of it, you'll need an aftermarket cooler for that but if your budget doesn't allow for it you can use the stock cooler for now and get it later.

 

There are some cheaper non-Z boards that support overclocking for the G3258 but they will need a BIOS update.
