That will run any current game in 1080p and highest settings
Not to get picky, but the computer will have to run the game by itself because an end user won't be able to. keyboard, mouse, game pad, audio, speakers, operating system are all things that you would need beyond this list. is the Nic or WiFi built into the mobo? I don't think that there is any dispute about the ability of modern computers to outperform a console, but folk shouldn't think that $500 gets them the equivalent device.
