Looks like an upgraded version of mine, (stats of which on the other thread) mostly. So, assuming it's just a bit better than mine, I'd assume that it's fine performing and can run most things at fairly high qualities. Maybe some problems here and there doing it, but for the most part, none.
So pretty good!

That's why you need to be efficient with your money! I managed to get a 700€ worth-in-parts computer for ~200€! You need to look for sales, the best deals possible on the best products, use connections if you have them (seriously, it's how I shaved off a bit of money from mine) and use whatever you can find to get back/take off money from it.

oya, and I've seen some online offers come with other things, for example I found my graphics card that was on sale, had a bit of a cash-back deal, along with two new video games, which I sold
I effectively paid ~30€ for my 660 because of that

my ~2k dollar pc was only 800 through deals and friends
i got a free 970 to use in sli because its ports were fried, i bought the other from my brother
my cpu was 140 used (usually 250)
storage is cheap anyway
got motherboard in a black friday sale a few years back, still good for some still-relevant (before skylake)
got the psu for free because friend accidentally ordered an extra one
16 gigs ram was 30 bucks for some reason
