Custom Gaming PC Check List

[Allenclark]

I'm building a gaming computer, here's what I got...

Motherboard: Gigabyte AMD FM2+/FM2 AMP-UP
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16GB
CPU: AMD FX-6300, 6 core
Graphics Card: EVGA GeForce GTX 750Ti Superclock
Hard Drive: 1TB
Tower (in case you're interested): NZXT Guardian 921RB
Optimal Drive: Asus 24x
PSU: Corsair HX 850

Is this a solid combination of ingredients for an ultimate gaming experience? Feedback/Opinions are highly appreciated!

FX-6300 uses socket AM3+ and not FM2/FM2+

Provide us with a budget, there's a lot of improvement to be done.

Thanks for the response! I'm looking < $1200 for my budget. What did you have in mind?

Thats enough money to get a high-end intel build. This is a bit over your budget but you'll love it.
