Is this best setup for under $600?

not that good for 600$ tbh

This is cheapest and highest rated parts at 600$

Can save $40 by switching to a G3258 + B85 MoBo

if u can't go over 30 ur original budget, i'd even change it to fx6300 or just get a lesser GPU n upgrade later if needed

but ur getting a gfg cpu, gg mobo, gg 8cas ram with 1866mhz, ssd, modular solid 650w psu and ssd.

the cheaper the better leaving room for screenage. my laptop has gt 540m and i5, but its over 3 years old trying to sell it for 250$ without the operating system. Anything that outperforms the acer.

since you seem like u want that specific case and psu,

only upgrade you'd need to do in future is aftermarket cpu cooler, and GPU when u feel that you're struggling in games.

Laptop i5 =/= Desktop i5
