My buddy is giving me some parts to make a decent PC and it will be a major upgrade from my current PC...

 

I plan on playing Mobas and possibly WoW again... I'd like a duel monitor display but I could live without... I would rather not spend more then $500 er so but if something is worth then I understand the extra... 

 

This is what I've got so far...

Aw man, what sweet case!  Looks like a solid build though, maybe a larger ssd or a better GPU. Though you aren't paying for the 650 so...

Want to custom loop?  Ask me more if you are curious

Few questions:

do you really need that case? just saying it would be a bit of a contrast to that parts inside.

would you be happy cutting a bit on the psu to get more performance? There are good ones for less.

do you know you need the 2nd stick of ram?

 

I would go for 250GB ssd if you can.

For a gpu, something like a gt1050 ti or rx 470

It looks pretty.... Lolz n it has rgb....... the only thing that lights up on my current PC is the power button... Lolz

I don't mind to cut anything for anything really... I was just kinda putting parts into pcpicker...

 Your list is solid.  I'd get a 4XX card and this monitor.  Sell the 650, get a 470 or 480, get Freesync.  You'd be golden :D
