Ok, so I am planning on building my very first desktop, but i need some help and feedback on the parts and whether i should change them for something cheaper that may have better or equal performance. (Btw this is for gaming and I'm planning on playing current games such as battlefield 3, crysis 3, dead space 3 as well as upcoming next gen games such as Titanfall and dying light) I would like to be able to play them at least on high at around 40fps average. -I live in Australia if that makes a difference :/
These are the components that i have planned to put into the build:-
AMD-FX 8350 8-core Black Edition CPU-248$
Crucial 8gb DDR3 1600mhz-88$
Crucial 120gb m500 SSD-129$
Seagate 1TB Barracuda-79$
Gigabyte Radeon HD 7870 OC Graphics Card-280$

I am open to any ideas, but remember, I only have a budget of 1000$
Cheers, Alex

That looks like a pretty nice build except I also have to buy the accessories as well you know the essentials, Keyboard, Mouse, Monitor and all of that together would go way over my budget
