Hey, it's my first time building a PC - I'll be buying all the parts in a month or so, I'm currently doing research and then buying the parts, anyways I was wondering are these parts compatible?

Case - Aerocool Strike-X Advance White - $89

CPU - AMD FX-6300 6 Core Black Edition Processor - $145

GPU - Sapphire Radeon R7 260X 2GB - $169

Storage - Seagate Barracuda 2TB ST2000DM001 - $99

Ram/Memory - Corsair CMSO8GX3M2A1333C9 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 - $99

CPU - ASUS M5A97 R2.0 Motherboard - $119

Power Supply - Aerocool Imperator 650W 80+ Bronze Power Supply - $85

This build I'm hoping is all good is currently at $802, should I go more or am I okay? (plus I'll be buying windows 8 and $41 shipping which isn't included in the build/price above.)

Yeah, it's fine. I don't know about maxing any other games but Rust and DayZ are pretty undemanding of the GPU but I'd stretch it a little to an R7 265 if I could. Maybe see what PSU you can get from XFX, Seasonic, Enermmax etc around 500w to make up the difference.
No I'm Australian, I didn't know this was international hhaa. But those are the legit prices, I'm just wondering, should I get better parts or are they okay to play dayZ/Rust on full settings?
