ok ive been working on a pc build for a while now and my b-day recently passed so i finnaly got some money for a pc build my budget is 350$ and i do not need a mouse,monitor,dvd drive, case, psu or an os this is my proposed build just under 330$ I got some parts from fries due to it being cheaper and as well its not that far from me my monitor is 720p however i will most likely upgrade it in the future by then i will probably get a 770 or crossfire the 7850 and im looking to play most modern games at ultra

You did pretty good. Especially being able to go with the HD 7850. More than enough for 720p. But if possible, check on the FX-6300 rather than the FX-6100. The older Bulldozer was inferior to the newer Vishera line. But if funds don't allow, you should still be fine. What is the make.model of your PSU?

The 4 core Athlon X4 750K is about in the same category as the 6 core FX-6100 when it comes to gaming. Actually, the Athlon X4 750K is 1 tier above the FX-6100 according to Tom's gaming CPU hierarchy chart: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-cpu-review-overclock,3106-5.html
(with a discrete card)

But in reality, both will be about the same for gaming with a discrete card. The six core may help in future games as they become better at multi threading and some other apps that can use more than 4 threads.

I can't help much with that keyboard; never used one. But Rosewill is Newegg's in-house brand and seem to be pretty good quality if their PSU's and cases are any example.
