I had a hard time reading your thread esp. after get off a long day work...but frankly there needs some improvements.

Fx-6300 is a good choice, w/ good CPU cooler u could OC it to over 4.0Ghz easily.

Better pair 970 chipset mobo or better w/ FX- CPUs.

HD 7770 seems too weak for your CPU. I would recommend u GTX 760. It performs better than HD 7950.
