I am buying all the parts from amazon except the OS which is from dabs.
I need to know if it will run minecraft with a texture pack and shaders at the same time.

It should be perfectly fine.

You could go With an intel build (i3) but you would have to sacrifice the GPU making other gaming impossible. I would go with this. It will be a great option. If you can increase the budget, get an i3 3220 and a b75 motherboard.

Honestly dude, that PC would absolutely DESTROY Minecraft at 1080p. That config is good for Crysis 3 at medium to high settings at 1280x1024. And Far Cry 3 at medium to high settings at 1280x1024.

Bottom line: it will KILL Minecraft.

This is much worse. the GPU is trash and worse than normal integrated graphics.
The CPU is trash. AMD said this themselves.

Go with the original build you had, OP

Do you realise the way you type is very provocative? Just thought someone should let you know.
