Best of luck, I only used compatible and reliable parts. If you are ok with skimping on a reliable and quality power supply or motherboard (Which I would not recommend at all). You could save a few dollars.

A good switch might be the non modular CX 430, but its just a $5 difference

Just to clarify. the budget is $500 tops, so about 360 euro. not 500 euro which is about $690.

And I don't think you can get much better unless you find awesome deals from a more local retailer or open box (used) parts.

Thats what i made. Also i thing the motherboard that Typolo gave wont support FX 6300. This motherboard is a littlebit overpriced but that is the best solution for 560$ as i thing.

The 8-pin supplemental power should provide ample support for the 6300. I was going to use a 990 chipset but couldn't find a good one without exceeding the $500 limit

Is that video card/build better ?
 


The build doesnt cost $552.13 because the processor is not added in the price! Carry on! It costs about 680$! Its out of stock and for that they dont count it! And yes it will fit. You have to click on the case and compare the motherboard and to see is the case fitting it. The motherboard is ATX so it fits:)

What is your dad case?
And what GPU are you use?
Your link is wrong. :)
 


I like 7870 more,but that videcard can run in medium/smoothly high r9 270 is the new era card ! Check out the reviews, compare them in gpuboss and etc. R9 270 is officially better :)
