My first pc

[Sluggs]

Hello I'm new with my pc knowledge but can i have some feedback on this pc I am considering building?http://pcpartpicker.com/list/DPNmGf My budget is under $600. I want to game minecraft, black ops2, and csgo, and LoL, and possible some other Fps games. I would like to run and a good frame rate. And the website says the motherboard might need a bios update. What does that mean?

why don't you get A10 or A12 APU instead?

you don't need a dedicated GPU for those things

Buy this, its so much better (Yes I know the PSU is overkill but I can vouch for it being a good PSU)

Edit: For an OS you can get a $10 Flash Drive and go download the Windows 10 Media Creation Tool on any windows 10 based PC and just get the OS from there.

Edit #2:
You also get about 2x the performance from this build. The FX 6300 isn't powerful AT ALL. the FX-6300 will suffer horribly in Minecraft because of how old it is and the fact it only uses one core.

Now, I'm not saying this is the best build on here... but it is. Also feel free to swap the 960 with a 380 if you want, and grab the OS off reddit.

EDIT: Features of this build, Quad Core CPU, 8GB's of DDR4 RAM, which is upgrade-able to 16, 120GB SSD for OS + Main programs, and 1TB HDD for mass storage, mid-range GPU, and a great small form factor case with USB 3.0 on the front.

As much as I'd love to the GPU isn't even out yet and we're not even sure how powerful it actually is going to be, also we don't know how long until it comes out.
