I'm making a gaming pc with a $550 budget for my brother. I cut out some unnecessary items (such as the CD/DVD drive because I know how to install the OS via USB) No monitor, keyboard, or mouse (I have those) I'm also not quite sure on some items such as the PSU and the MOBO.

CPU: AMD FX-6300
MOBO: ASROCK 970 Extreme3
Case: Cooler Master Elite 430
GPU: ATI RADEON 7750
RAM: 8 GB Corsair Vengeance
HDD: 500 GB Seagate Barracuda (not important have my own)
PSU: Antec 450 Watt

I'm not sure If I should get some fans as well because this all together is about $60 below my budget w/o OS

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated

Actually I'd go with a Pentium 2120 and a Radeon 7790, that would be a better bang for buck option:
