I know i posted befpre with another build but I changed a few things here and there and I wanted to see if this would be a good system for a budget of 650-700
 
Solution
it should be okay. If you are going AMD it may be better to go with the fx6300 and put any extra money into the GPU, try for a 280 or better. Also you dont need 1866 ram, 1600 is enough and it will run in dual channel, a bit faster, if you get 2x4gb instead of 1x8gb

Everything will work together. You won't really be able to push much of an overclock however. The Tx3 is better than a stock cooler, but it isn't the best on the market and that motherboard doesn't have the most robust power section. Everything should work, I just wouldn't try for 5ghz with this build.
