$500 Build

[Rapid Heat]

I'm on a $500 budget and I need a gaming build. I plan on using it for mostly high graphic games that are harder for most computers to run. Could you please also recommend me some cheap peripherals. Thanks to everyone and anyone that recommends. Also don't include windows, I have that covered.

What kind of games are we talking about so we know what type of video card you will need and other things.

Games like crysis/ bf3 etc.

$500 for a complete PC to run those games at high settings is probably a bit optimistic I'm afraid... :/
