HELP PC build advice R9 290 to much for FX-8320?!

[MrBalisticNinja]

Hey guys, I'm planning on making a PC for Xmas and I have one built up (for gaming) but I'm worried that the cpu just isn't good enough for my gpu. My budget is pretty maxed (700ish). Like I said this is a gaming based pc and will be playing next gen games. Thanks http://pcpartpicker.com/user/Chicken2424/saved/B9w8TW

No, the R9-290 is not too much for the FX-8320. And you always can OC the FX-8320 very easily.

Btw, Rockie has a good build for the money. But I don't like the case... I have that case on a budget build.

the case should be fine , since GTX 970 is 145W and i5 4460 84W , both 229W ! Its not 8320 -125W and R9 290- 270W = 295W . My rig has far less heat and the case is good .

No, I agree. The case is fine for that build. I just personally don't like it. Lol... just a personal taste thing.
