I was trying to keep the total cost under $600

I mainly want to play gta v , and some bf4 for my youtube channel. The price is really important so if you suggest anything please keep it under $600

I would like to eventually crossfire with the 7870.

Please recommend anything better, but It can't be over $600, I would like to crossfire or sli later.

Please let me know what you think!

I think you will find this build a small bit better.

I found a new build, kinda or maybe better, I changed the case and the power supply http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/26SYi

Definitely keep the XFX PSU, you should not get a power supply from brands other than Antec, Corsair, PCP&C, SeaSonic, Silverstone, or XFX. Also the FX-6300 is more powerful and cheaper than the FX-6200.
