So after posting about the FX 6300 vs i3 4150, I stuck with the i3 4150 for upgradability, performance, and it's my first Intel CPU. So now I have put together a list for a $600~ Gaming PC I would plan to build for Christmas or some time near that, so what do you think? What changes would you make? Keep in mind this is a budget PC and it cannot exceed $600. Let me know what you think!

Looks fine. I personally would go with a ATX motherboard of a more well known brand, but it comes with a 2/3 year warranty from Newegg so you should be fine.
