The gpu is a bit expensive for me, any other recommendations?
Any other recommendations with anything related to the build?

Solution

You shouldn't be using an FX chip in a build this expensive. It looks like more and more games will be multithreaded, but that's not the case. At least not within the lifetime of this PC. You rarely can code a game to run on more than 4 cores. It's impossible with our current game engine technology to consistently parallelize the workload over many cores and see a performance boost (See: Amdahl's Law). So singlethreaded speed becomes the determining factor, and FX chips have rubbish singlethreaded performance compared to Intel chips. So at this point in time, the Intel chip is the only option for a build of this caliber.

With that in mind, here's my build suggestion:
