U r getting every part overkill for a gaming pc. Go with Intel for best performance of gaming. In which country do you live. Let ne know for choosing some parts on ur budget.
Thank you.

Hi, I live in Canada, the store I was looking online is called "Canadacomputers" ATM, I do have the i7 on this PC atm, so I'm pretty much trying out AMD for the first time. One of my PC loving friends told me AMD is fine, and it's cheaper then most intel processors. That's the point lol, i would like a really powerful gaming machine to last me a long time.

But on second though.......looks like this Processor isn't great for gaming. What CPU can you recommend me? Looks like I'll go intel for this one lol. Something i7?

Alright, I did some more shopping, so I'm replacing the processor with the i7 4770K, with a ASUS z87 motherboard, Corsair Vengeance Pro Silver 8GB (2x4gb) ram, and I downgraded the HDD to 500GB to save a few bucks. I have also put in a new gaming mouse, headset, and keyboard, all from RAZER. But if you want to see the whole list, here's the link to see the picture : http://gyazo.com/aa3c25d3111871c9d6ae9438729934a5

If u want to save money u can save lot of money.
U can choose 1 GPU. It is enough for 1 monitor @ 1440p.
2. U can go for 650-700w PSU. It is enough for 1 GPU like gtx 780 or 770.
3. You can go for a cheap DVD writer.
4. U can go for SSD 120gb.
You can save lot of money. You got 3k budget so i chose every part best. Your build is really solid my friend.
I hope it helps.
Thank you.
