Why not an Intel build? If you go for 8350, prepare to pay extra for your monthly electricity bill. I5-3570K + ASRock Z77 extreme 4 > that FX-8350. Seriously, gaming ram is nothing, value ram gives you the same performance with cheaper price. So, go for value ram, and 8GB is more than enough. 900W is definitely overkill, for SLI GTX 670, minimum power requirement is 700W, so 800W is enough for your build. Spend the rest of your money to get H110 or H100i , bigger capacity SSD and an ASUS GPU
