My friend has $590 that he is dishing out on a PC, and I have come up with builds on PCPartPicker but he thinks that Austin Evans $600 build is better than mine, so I am reaching out to the forum for a build that is at a maximum of $590. Gaming only. he is saving for a more expensive one later this year but has to settle for this for now. No peripherals, and no monitors.
//edit added another fan for better airflow.

If he plans on upgrading the system in the future, you might wanna get a higher wattage power supply
