Hi, I'm new to building pcs, and i heard a lot about power supplies, and how you should never under spend on one. Im planning to build a pc some time in the future, but i want to check out my power supply to make sure that it is adequate.

My Components -
amd fx 6300

CORSAIR HX Series HX850

Corsair vengence ddr3 2x4gb

xfx radeon hd 7870

AsRock 970a Extreme3 motherboard

Western Digital WD1002FAEX Caviar Black 1 TB

Cooler Master Elite 431 PLUS USB 3.0 ATX case

Also, I heard that it may be good if i upgraded the fx 6300 to an 8350, but im wondering if the cost will be worth it.
 
Solution
For gaming, there's less advantages to upgrading from a FX-6300 to a FX-8350 in a price/performance ratio. As for the power supply, it is overkill. You don't need a 850W PSU to power it. Try a Corsair TX 650W V2.
