Help W/ A Build Under 500 USD

[TeraHertz]

So, I would like a build that can record most games like Minecraft, Sim City, and Kerbal Space Program (Please don't make fun of me, I'm not a Hardcore gamer but not a casual either) at over 30 FPS at 1080-720P. I would like an SSD with a mass storage drive over a TB. I don't need any other peripherals besides a Monitor. I would like Quad-Core but a G3258 could be nice. I don't edit any of my videos so don't take that into consideration. So, thanks.

 

EDIT: I would like an OS with that too please.

Sim City will definitely benefit from a quad core. 860K would be perfect.

Oh wait, you need a monitor as well, something like this then, only SSD you're going to get at that price range are 240gb and those will run out really fast with footage
