So I will be building a gaming computer mainly for fsx and minecraft soon, and these are the components i have come up with. I created this list a while ago so I am wondering if there are updated versions of the parts. I was also wondering how well you think the computer will run.

-Ultra OEM 700W Power Supply
-MSI 970A-G46 AMD 9 Series Motherboard
-AMD FD8150FRGUBOX FX-8150 Processor
-Seagate ST500DM002 Barracuda 3.5" Internal Hard Drive
-Crucial BLS4G3D1339DS1S00 Ballistix Desktop Memory Module (2x 4gb)
-MSI R6670-MD1GD5 Radeon HD 6670 Video Card

P.S. I was planning on replacing the Radeon HD 6670 with the 6850.

Thanks!

Yeah great build
Get the 6850 for sure for around 100$
Just get 80plus psu
Its not the maximum watts but value of current in +12v rail
Its just 40a in this psu which is not sufficient for your cpu and video card
U ll need more than 50a

The best i can suggest u wid best price and monster perof 65usd is 62a single rail thermaltake 750w

I was gonna go with the Corsair CX Series CP-9020061-NA 750W Power Supply but I like the Power Supply you recommended. I am thinking about changing fom the FX8150 to the FX8350. As for the 6850, someone told me I should go with the HD7850. Do you think that's a good idea or not. Or maybe a nvidia?

Look my advice to you would be 8320 vishera-159$ its latest piledriver cores compared to the old bulldozer core in fx8350

U can easily overclock it to get the same clocks

Instead i would suggest you to put your funds in a evga gtx 760 with acx cooler -259$
Great card has performance of a 7950
