Assembling A Mid-Range Gaming Desktop , Please check this configuration and provide inputs. I am from India and Can't exceed the cost above it, Although inputs are highly appreciated.

Processor : AMD FX6300.

Motherboard : Asus M5A78L M LX Plus.

RAM : Corsair (1X4Gb) = 4Gb DDR3 (1666) + Transcend 2Gb DDR3 (1066).

Graphic Card : Sapphire 1Gb DDR5 AMD/ATI Radeon 6750.

Would be using it for Gaming + 3D/1080p Movies on external Display mostly via HDMI.

Normal Cooler Master F200 Cabinet..

PSU 600W.

Hard Disk : 320Gb @ 7200rpm.

This is the configuration i have designed so far.
1. I wanted to ask whether or not there will be any compatibility issues?
2. How Much can I expect from this configuration?
3. Any Suggestions?

If that Cooler Master is the PSU you were looking at, why did you list it as 600W? Anyway, the Corsair and the Seasonic are probably better choices. Have a look at this page: http://www.eggxpert.com/forums/thread/323050.aspx

As for what you can play, the 6750 is reputed to be a rebadged 5750 with roughly the same performance, so this review might give you an idea which games you can play at high settings and still get a playable framerate:

Please give more details of the PSU. If it's bad quality and/or doesn't have enough amps on the +12V rail, you should choose a different one and cut costs somewhere else if necessary.

Mixing memory speed and brands could cause you problems. Try to get a 2x4GB kit with two identical sticks of memory.

I can't find specifications for a Cooler Master F200 case. Can you provide a link?

Thank you so much.
Now since you mentioned, i wanted to confirm that whether you were pointing me towards buying 5750 instead of 6750 since you mentioned, that roughly the performance is same. 😛
