I am really not a great hardware person. More of a software guy. All I know is graphics cards. So, I picked a good one. At least that is what I thought.

Can you guys tell me any improvements that I can make to get a better pc, or make it cheaper? Thanks guys.

Nice. I like that fact that the case comes with the power supply. And it is so cheap... Wow.

With an AMD build like this is, I would recommend getting the 270x instead of nvidia.

Well, I really didn't know what cpu to get. Is there a better one for about the same price? I need a serious upgrade.

These are the specs that I remember if anyone cares.
Cpu: AMD Athlon 64 x2
Memory: 2 gigs
Storage: 260 gb
and I really don't know the rest. Woops.

With this type of build I suggest dropping the 770 and getting a cheaper card, maybe a 270x or 280x. Yup tyler has the same idea.

Go with a AMD FX-6300 6 Core or a FX series 8 core. Don't drop the GPU to a 270x its a very bad decision. The 770 beats the 270x by 15 fps in Battlefield 4 Ultra 2xMSAA 1900x1200. and I chose bf4 because its a graphic intense game. Also whats your budget? PM me and I can use your GPU in a build i'll customize on PcPartpicker
