    $500 Budget Build?

    Here is a $700 build made by the staff at PCPartPicker: http://pcpartpicker.com/blog/41/bitfenix-comrade-700-gaming-build. I know it's not in your budget but you can just not get the SSD, maybe get 4GB of RAM instead of 8GB. If that's not low enough just switch some parts around until it is. Or you could look at something second hand? Usually some powerful computers for cheap.
