So im gonna buy a gaming pc soon and i was wondering would these parts work together?
CPU: AMD FX-8350
CPU Cooler: Coolermaster Hyper 212 EVO
GPU: ASUS R9 280 3GB GDDR5
MOBO: AsRock 970 Extreme 4
RAM: Kingston 4GB HyperX Fury 1600mhz x2
HDD: WD 1TB Blue
PSU: Zalman 600W ZM600 GLX
Case: Cooltek Antiphon
OS: Win 8 64bit
Is this wise build? Should i take 8320 instead of 8350?
 
Solution

I would change the power supply and the FX 8350, the fx 8350 to an fx 6300 and overclock it. How much is your budget?
PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant

CPU: AMD FX-6300 3.5GHz 6-Core Processor ($109.98 @ OutletPC)
Power Supply: EVGA 600B 600W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply ($44.99 @ NCIX...
If you plan to overclock your CPU at a higher frequency, then definitely go with the FX-8350. If you overclock and do a Crossfire, then a 600W wouldn't be enough and I would recommend a 750-850W.
I would also recommend to invest in a SSD as gaming pc usually have it, and people don't regret it. Other from that, the PC is ready to play high quality demanding games.

@DeadGraphics: My budget supposed to be 800€ but that setup i posted costs 855€ and i am not planning to overclock.

@Eduello: is that 550W surely enough for this build?

What country are you from because there are different prices in euros for different countries and what website are you getting it from
 


Yeah 550W is enough since the PSU is very high quality.
