This is almost my finalized build. My budget is about 500 US dollars. My goal is playing Just Cause 3 and minecraft 60 fps 1440x900 monitor with medium settings. Will this build accomplish that? Is there anything whatsoever I might need to make the computer perform like a store bought shelf one? I use headphones, do I need a sound card? Also, can I reuse the wifi thing from my current computer or do I need to buy a new one? Do I need anything else whatsoever? Basically, when I put this all together can I browse the web, play games, download things, listen to music, edit videos? Any parts not as good as they can be for the price?

Oh right, I have a 250 gb ssd already. That should work with this right?

Yes that should work.

Will the i3 6100 work for Just Cause 3 though? A lot of gameplay I looked at, seems like it will work very smoothly at medium settings. I want to cut as much budget as possible as well.

Fabulous! Any recommended added parts?

Also for both of you should I just download Linux or what for the OS? Can I transfer from my current computer?

I honestly don't know, I just know most games are better on an i5

Would you mind going with Windows 10?

It should be fine from the gameplay I have seen

Using it right now but its a bit pricey. Is it possible to transfer or get for free or something?

You will have to buy Windows 10 again as it is linked to the motherboard.

I dont want to be that guy, but i would rather have a 8320E than the i3

I'm not surprised, overclocked that can be good but I don't exactly want to melt my heatsink and motherboard anytime soon so I'm just not gonna do that.
