Do you need a complete setup or just the tower?

If you just need the PC this should do good

For $100 more you can get a lot more power

It is a 6 core cpu with a 7870

 

It can play any game a high settings with good fps, it is $40 over $500 but if you have a HD 

 

don't get the HD in this build and you will be at $500.

 

I hope this is helped you.
