New Cheap Budget Build

[MRC390]

Hello everyone! I'm trying to make a cheap budget build to play some games on mid-high settings.

My max resolution is 1336x768 and i plan on keeping the monitor.

heres the list of parts:


Mobo: MSI 760GM-P23 (FX) mATX (supports a max of 95w CPU's, 16gb of ddr3 1333mhz)


CPU: FX 4300 (best 95w CPU i could find for the price, wanted a Deneb but they mobo only supports 95w)

GPU: Radeon HD 6670 - think it's good for my resolution, not trying to play major titles like battlefield 3.

RAM: Mushkin 8GB 2x4GB 1333mhz

PSU: XFX 550W PRO 80+ bronze

Case: I really wasn't sure about this, I wanted something cheap that looked really cool with decent airflow, tell me what you think about it:

Azza Orion 202EVO

Since my Mobo is sata 2 I thought it made sense to reuse my current 500GB hard drive and my dvd burner to save some cash.


Total cost = $425

Tell me what you think
P.S: I'm only looking to play games like Continent of the Ninth, A.v.A, Diablo III, Planet side 2 (mid settings if i must) Etc. Maybe some black light retribution.

I still prefer my case over that one, you kept the same GPU, and my mobo only supports 1333mhz ram, so paying extra for 1600mhz is useless.

Not sure about going to 6 cores, the price isn't big so maybe i should.

 

[MRC390]

Oh my bad, you got a different GPU. But that particuluar GPU is out of stock :/

hd6670 - hd 7750 (out of stock :/ )
the case also has psu so you will save your money. yeah you decide the motherboard-ram fact

 

[oondun]

go for 6 core for sure.

I went with the 6 core, and i changed the case to a thermaltake V3 and i will be installing 2 additional Zalman ZM-F3 case fans for intake and exhaust.
