Is this a Decent $600 gaming PC?

[Bopzm]

I've been searching around for hours now for a decent gaming PC for around $600 and came across this in the YouTube comments of a build video and I wanted to know if this was any good.

Looks good.

BAD psu, i'd recommend going 8gb and getting a 1060 6gb/ better cpu.

Get a better PSU, a CX450 or 550M. Other than that, looks good to me

ASrock Pro 4 is the minimum you want

 

if you go with 8gbs of RAM you can fit in an R5 1400 for around the same price

 

got a nicer case and PSU

 

get an RX 580 over a 1060 3gb, the 3gb 1060 is never worth buying IMO, they're on sale at newegg, the XFX unit is $230 over there I believe

Mail in rebates never work though, also you probably want dual channel RAM

Ryzen likes it's dual channel RAM though

I plan on upgrading the ram in the future so I will probably get 1 8gb right now

In any event I'd drop the RAM to 8gbs, upgrade the CPU, get an ASrock Pro 4 motherboard, a better PSU

 

and a 580 for Free-sync savings in the future mostly.

Alright, how about this https://pcpartpicker.com/list/d738LD over budget but I could fit it in

That case looks like it has horrible airflow, least this one has a bottom mesh

 

Buy a 580 over a 3GB 1060, no one should buy a 3GB 1060 at that price
