im looking into a cheap build for gaming,nothing really super high end.here is what im leaning towards parts wise,can a knowledgeable builder let me know if this will be alright and all work together properly?this is my first build. Thanks for all the help in advance.

AMD FD6300WMHKBOX FX-6300 6-Core Processor Black Edition

GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3 AM3+ AMD 990FX SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard

Kingston HyperX FURY 8GB Kit (2x4GB) 1600MHz DDR3 CL10 DIMM

GeForce GTX 750 1024MB GDDR5 GPU

WD 1TB 7200RPM HD

ThermalTake TR2 600 Watt ATX PSU

All going inside-
Sentey Gaming Case Optimus Gs-6000 Plus and thinking windows 7 instead of 8.1 until 10 comes out.
What yas think will this all play nice together?see any problems or have any advice?Thank You!
 
Solution
The only brands you should trust is: EVGA B2/G2/P2, XFX, SeaSonic, Antec

The thing is, it can cause problems down the road, and may even destroy some parts. A good quality PSU is needed in all computers, especially for gaming.
