This is my very first time building a computer and before I sink a bunch of money into it id like the opinion of some people who actually know what they're doing. Here is the parts list so far http://pcpartpicker.com/user/patrick42m/saved/3hl6
Balancing parts for >$750 gaming/animation build
- Thread starter 7777uuuu
- Start date
Solution
Go with something like this
CPU:$129
http://pcpartpicker.com/part/amd-cpu-fd8320frhkbox
Motherboard:$64
http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asrock-motherboard-970pro3r20
The rest of your parts should be fine find another cpu cooler if you desire.
I would seriously consider this route since you are getting a lot better bang for your buck and performance wise this will shoot over your other build.
Hope This helped

i3 is going to be way to weak. The issue with intel is that it is good but it is expensive. For builds under 1000$ you need to take the route of amd.
