Hello I am building my first computer with a 1000 US dollar budget.

I use to play on a Xbox 360 but I have decided to transfer to PC gaming.

I would like it to play games like bf4 on mid settings at a steady frame rate.

Any suggestions on how to improve it.

Here is my build:

Looks alright, but GPU should be the priority, not CPU. So get a 970 if you can, and if you can't, lower the cpu to like a 4460 or whatever. Also, not sure about the TP-LINK wireless adapter.
