First Custom PC

[Zatike]

I'm looking for a basic gaming computer and i made one on IBUYPOWER.com Here are the specs:
1 x Processor ( AMD A8-5600K APU (4x 3.60GHz/4MB L2 Cache) )
1 x Processor Cooling ( Certified CPU Fan and Heatsink )
1 x Memory ( 4 GB [2 GB X2] DDR3-1600 Memory Module - Corsair or Major Brand )
1 x Video Card ( AMD Radeon HD 7790 - 1GB - Single Card )
1 x Video Card Brand ( Major Brand Powered by AMD or NVIDIA )
1 x Motherboard ( Gigabyte GA-F2A85X-D3H )
1 x Power Supply ( 400 Watt - Standard )
1 x Primary Hard Drive ( 1 TB HARD DRIVE -- 32M Cache, 7200 RPM, 6.0Gb/s - Single Drive )
1 x Keyboard ( iBUYPOWER Standard Gaming Keyboard - FREE Upgrade to A4Tech Blue LED Backlit Gaming Keyboard ($19 value) )
1 x Mouse ( iBUYPOWER Standard Gaming Mouse - Blood Red )

Are there any problems or things i should change?

That PSU leaves an unsettling feeling... Not only is 400w a little low, but then again, none of the components seem very descriptive either

Whats with all the "or MAJOR NAME BRAND"'s?

how much are you paying for this? cause anything over 500 is too much, and you should build it yourself.

and yes, the psu scares me too, not because of the size but because they don't say what it is.

Only problem I see is that you are paying too much for it. When I go to their website and customize with what you have listed it comes out to $758(with Windows 7 Pro).

If I go to Newegg and put the same or better parts in I come up with $621.80 before you send in the rebates.(minus the keyboard/mouse/case). And you get all the same games or more.

I have 8GB of better RAM than you will get in that customized one, a 600W Power Supply, and a 64MB Cache Hard Drive. PM me if you're considering it.

oh nice...can you send me the links to the components? Ill look up some tutorials and get some help from my dad.

You can save a ton (or get waaay better components) by building it yourself

Never ever use their standard power supply Also if you built one on the cyberpowerpc site they have standard supplies you should never ever use. Always go with a name brand well reviewed power supply and save your self a ton of headaches.

i'm not talking component cost, i'm talking general performance. it's basically a $500~ pc in performance
