i5 661, Intel 55SB motherboard, 8gb corsair ram, 120gb ssd.

Yes sir, you should be good for quite awhile with this build. Unless you go 4k or somthing crazy like that lol

I have an Intel 55SB mobo and I can't get my R9 270X to work on it! I don't know why. To make it even stranger, the BIOS does show up with the new card in, but when I go to hit a button for boot menu, it just beeps. Any ideas on what to do?

Your CPU is perfectly fine, actually pretty nice :) As for the card, running in 1920x1080, expect around 115 - 130 FPS depending on ambient temp., overclock, and the amount of thermal paste applied.

Custom made actually puts you at a greater chance of having a spare port, crack it open and see if you have a spare under your GPU
