I NEED HELP WITH MY BUILD PLEASE -FROST

[frostflameful]

Hello... I am a first time builder, so I would like some help. I am going to order my parts soon, so I would like to get you pro builder's input first. Here it is. I am going to be doing mild gaming, mostly minecraft recording. I do not need RAM, keyboard, or mouse. I am going to buy a monitor for $100, and here is my build.

PSU: XFX Core Edition 550w Modular 80 Plus Bronze

GPU: Sapphire Radeon HD 7770 1GB

CPU: AMD FX 8320

OPTICAL: Asus 24x DVD Burner

CASE: Raidmax Blade White

HDD: Western Digital Caviar Blue 750gb 64mb 7200rpm, WD7500AZEX

MOBO: Biostar TA970 AM3+ AMD 970 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX


I think this build will be able to record on max settings on minecraft with 30+ fps. I am also going to have 16gb of 1866mhz ram. I already bought that. Please give me suggestions and improvements. I will be ordering this as soon as I get some feedback. THANK YOU -Frost

You should get an i5 processor it is really awesome and reduces Minecraft lag and I know because I am a Minecraft gamer myself

That case is not very good. Pick up something like a cooler master elite 430 or antec 300.

I would trade out that mobo for an asrock. Better quality, great prices.

Okay about the case. I will look into that. I would prefer to stick with the 8320. I like the 8 cores better, and I would save a bit of money. I am on a strict budget and cant have any more than $10 above $800 total.
