Change the pentium to the Athlon X4 860K, it's better and some games need 4 cores to run, but otherwise the GPU is fine and throw in a 120GB SSD

eh idk you can get a 860k with 8gb of ram and a 260x or 750 TI (if parts are from amazon) for the same price

 

if you use what pc part picker wants you to buy from im sure you can get a better GPU like that 950
