Cheap But Runs Crysis

My goal with this build is to make it as fast as possible while spending the least amount of money possible. I'll be upgrading this one a lot.
I built it from parts I got over time and some second-hand parts.

Parts: Cost:
PROCESSOR: I7 3770 27$ (second hand from repairs shop)
MOBO: Intel DH67BL (DH77EB died, 27$ from repairs shop) 0$ (my neighbor threw it out)
16GB RAM 13$ (4 sticks of 4GB. 2 are second hand from a repairs shop, two I got from a trade with my friend)
GPU: Nvidia GTX 950 0$ (Took it from my main PC after upgrade)
SSD: Corsair Force GS 0$ (Took it from my main PC after upgrade)
Heat sink: Freezer 7 PRO REV. 2 0$ (had it lying around)
PSU: TR2 RX-450 0$ (Took it from my main PC after upgrade)

Total cost: 67$
Color(s): Black
RGB Lighting? No
Theme: none
Cooling: Air Cooling
Size: ATX
Type: General Build
