Would this be worth my money

Im thinking of buying a new PC at christmas. i want it for gaming/schoolwork. I wont be playing BF4 or crysis but a bit of minecraft and garrysmod. for school only Things like office and gimp for photo editing. i know it wont be lightning fast but is it worth the 460? also if you see any incompatibilities/bottlenecks can you mention it. The case comes with a fan would you recomend buying another?

@PerrysGaming, for a nicely formatted presentation: with the Current Part List displayed click on the Export / Markup button on right, above list. In the window that pops, select BBCode as the Format. Then copy and paste the build list.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

This here. I recommend getting 8gb of ram instead of 4gb. Especially since a lot of the games out there require 6-8gb of ram. Not to mention 4gb isn't a whole lot, my friend who isn't even a pc gamer has a laptop with 4gb and he runs into memory problems just using the internet
