Looking at building a gaming PC, needing some help. Was wanting to go the route of an AMD fx6300 with AMD mobo, MSI R9 270x and a Kingston SSD. Looking to play current titles such as Ghosts, BF4, Rust, DayZ, 7 Days to Die, Minecraft, etc. and achieve 60 fps. If someone could make a pcpartpicker list of a suggested build that would be great. I already have one I've made custom wise with what I mentioned above, but im open to other alternatives, as long as it doesnt sacrifice quality/performance. My estimated budget is 600-700$. Do not need OS, monitor or any peripherals, just the computer itself. My current monitor is http://tinyurl.com/latzk5l I know its not the best but ill upgrade it with the time being. Please dont suggest anything that isnt compatible with that monitor. Thanks in advance.

edit - would prefer the sources to be Newegg or Amazon, or mix of both.

To manage a SSD within this budget I had to sacrifice a better graphics card GTX 760. If you can afford its better you go for it:
