So I'm building a 430$ budget PC that can play most games on Medium - High.
(BattleField 3, League of Legends, Minecraft, Far Cry 3, Assasins Creed etc.)

Here is my Build
CPU - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
Motherboard - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
RAM - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
Power Supply - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
Hard Drive - www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E1682213677...
Case - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
Optical Drive and other peripherals - will use the ones from my current pc.

In the future - Crossfire with http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

I am buying a new computer because I am sick of my junk pc - Pentium 4, Geforce FX 5500 1 gb ram, 80gb HD.

Any thoughts/ recommendations on improving my build to a better one? Thanks. :D

Yup. I'm pretty sure. Oh and by the way, Should I get the AMD FX processors and a cheap radeon graphics card, then upgrade in the future?

I want my build to be future proof.

Well the best would be hold off on buying untill you can invest in the most powerfull GPU you can afford, because xfiring low end gpu's is mostly illadvised.

By the way, I found out that I can use dual graphics with a Radeon HD 7750. I will be using the dual graphics feature, not crossfire. Oops. Sorry my mistake.
