I am building a new gaming pc. Some of the parts I am using are coming from my old pc.
I would like to know if the parts I plan on buying will fit in the case and at that will they work without any issues.

I plan on buying
Geforce Gtx 980
Amd Fx-9590
GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3
Rosewill Gaming ATX Mid Tower Computer Case


The parts i already have include 8gb of ram from my previous pc, 1 tb hard drive, and

Dynex 520W ATX CPU Power supply

Will the parts fit inside of the case and more importantly will the pc run?

Not a good build. The 9590 is a bad CPU choice as it only performs slightly better than a 8370. A decent i5 will out perform the AMD in every benchmark except video renders and that is even marginal.

The PSU is also pretty bad.

What is your total budget? Ill be able to help more knowing that.

Get whatever case you want and OS. These will all out perform a 9590.

At this point there is no reason to "upgrade" to AMD unless you are on a tight budget and/or are coming from something that's pretty damn old. The 900 series chipsets are like 4 years old, and in computer terms, that's beyond ancient.

Yes. Even a i5 is going to outperform an 8 core AMD.
Here is a cheaper build than the ones above.
If you have any build above 750 you should get Intel. A weak end i5 such as the 4460 will out perform the AMD in gaming.

Both builds will have a 30+% boost over the 9590. The first of the 2 cannot overclock but it has 8 cores. If you are playing GTA 5 the first build is the way to go for sure. Even a heavy ocd AMD CPU is slower than these.

The 9590 is a bad CPU for the price in general. Anyone that has seen benchmarks knows it does not contend.

My only problem is that I went on game debate to see Star Citizen's specs. The requirements for ultra (processor) was Core i7-5960X 8-Core 3.0GHz or FX-9590. The Fx-9590 is the cheaper of the two and if it is equivalent in power than why pay the extra $ for an intel processor? Or is the intel processor actually much more powerful than that amd processor?

My goal is to hopefully be able to run upcoming titles smoothly maxed out. Titles such as star citizen, gta v, batman arkham knight, and other demanding pc games. Will the build that you recommended get me closer to that goal than a build with the amd fx-9590 would?

Watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDVcpAhegWs
And this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXsjBoMmxOM

The 200 dollar difference with the 9590 Intel is not worth it. With the 9590 you need water cooling also.

You can max out any game at 1080p Easy with the Xeon. The Xeon build is the SAME as the i7 in benchmarks but cheaper. Also these tests were done with a OLD video card so the 980 is going to perform even better than what is shown in the tests.

So then what processor should i get so that I am not ripping my self off and I am getting the performance needed to run today's performance heavy video games. Is there an intel card that is not expensive as the 4790k and better than the 9590?

There is simply no need for a PC build like that for just playing games. You end up pissing away money on performance you don't need any will never use. Or in this case, on a top heavy CPU with which they don't even bother including a heatsink because at 220W, it would burn a hole in itself on air. A 4790K uses like 40% of the power and outperforms it on pretty much everything.

The Xeon is a better value. The i7 would probably pull it out in the end but the price difference doesn't really justify getting the i7 unless you plan on overclocking.
