Budget PC help

[Reekris]

Hey guys im trying to help a friend build a "gaming" PC. he only has a budget of about 500 dollars USD, he wantsto use the PC for hearthstone, League of Legends, Hero's the storm, Grand Theft Auto and a few other games. I've tried to get him to raise his budget but he is firm on 500 USD, We live in a small town so all part must be ordered online, the PC he currently has really doesn't much to save, just the HDD and CD drive. 

 

   he wants a Quad Core CPU prefers to have Intel, but on a side note he doesn't need any monitor's, Keyboard, or a mouse.

 

here is a link to pc part picker to a list that i came up with, im not the best at picking parts so thats why im here for your help, and any help would be great

THe i3 is a dual core with 2 "fake" cores.  It will take a small hit over a quad core but if you can convice him to spend $500 more, get him a 4460.
