So my brother asked me to come up with a computer for him that was fairly cheap. This is what I came up with, and the parts are on their way. What do you guys think?

Asus 760 mini gpu. Also this can make a great steam box too.

Edit* I bought the H81i MOBO not the H97 because Newegg was out of stock with the H97.

The mini 760 would be great if I was limited on space, but the 250D will fit full size GPUs. The mini costs more than the non-mini cards by just a little, but what's the point if I'm able to fit a 780ti in the case if I wanted to?

That's right forgot. In less you're on a low budget I would do a 270x or 760 for 1080p gaming.

I'm trying to keep this build as close to $500 as possible, but I knew I had to have an SSD in there for general snappiness so I went a little over budget. The 750ti will play games at 1080p on med-high settings, maybe not with anti-aliasing turned up though. But that's ok, my brother wants to play games and have a quick computer on the cheap. This is a great build to start with that can be easily upgraded in the future if he so chooses.

Seems you already have it figured out. Only other advice is get a bigger psu for that upgraded gpu. Buy now that way there's no buy later.
