2. Mother board - ASUS M5A97 LE (USB 3.0 and 6 Gbps sata interface)
3. Ram - Corsair Vengeance DDR3 8 GB (1600 mhz)
4. Graphics Card - Asus AMD/ATI HD 7750 1 GB GDDR5 (820 mhz)
5. SSD for OS Drive - Samsung 840 Series 120 GB SSD
6.HDD for Storage - Seagate Barracuda 2 TB

Well, the build overall is too unbalanced.
You got a high-end CPU and a low-middle end GPU.

Get a fx 8320 or even fx 6300 to bump up the GPU to atleast a 7850/70 or something like that.

What is the price difference between the Fx 8350 and 8320? Is it significant enough for you to maybe slightly upgrade your GPU?

The 8320 is only slightly lower clocked than the 8350, since you want to game heavily with the best settings possible, it would be better to invest the cost difference between these two cpu's in a gpu upgrade if possible. Like the 7850 for instance.

Good luck
