PC Build Check

[Apollo Refugio]

Hey guys, I'm planning to build this PC and I want your opinions on it. I'm only going to play light games, probably the heaviest as GTA 5.

do you know when it is supposed to come out? because I'd look at the cards below the RX480 because I don't plan to do VR

[Herman Mcpootis]

Use the iGPU and Wait for the rx 480 at $200, it'll have much better performance for the money.
