On the other hand I could buy a pre-built computer for around $550 with a monitor included..If anyone has some pre-built suggestions that would be better I would greatly appreciate it...I will primarily be using it for gaming (Minecraft, Call of Duty, CSGO, & Rocket League) and hope to get a solid 60 fps, thanks!

And I would trade the SSD for a Blue WD, more storage for cheaper, maybe a locate the extra $25 into a 470 for better performance.

you do have a good point there :) or if you have an old pc that has sata, you just add a few more $$ and get the 470 anyways :D and add HDD from old pc. I've done that in the past
