it was just as a reference and i picked it because of high reviews when doing a build like that as his 600$ build plays medium mine plays ultra

That is such a bad build. Here's a better build for only $30 more. For $30 more, I'd definitely go with this build.

Here's another build. $100 cheaper and still better than the build you put together.

If you're going for a cheap build- do you really need to put in a $40 sound card? It might just be me but that seems a little frivolous...
