Will this run most of the games on high or ultra setting smoothly?

edit: if you only use a single 1080p monitor you can drop the GTX 770 down to a 2 GB VRAM model and save ~ $50.....added a case and optical drive to the build as well

in terms of CPU performance, here are a couple of links showing the 8320 to be marginally better:

http://cpuboss.com/cpus/AMD-FX-8320-vs-AMD-FX-6300

http://www.cpu-world.com/Compare/301/AMD_FX-Series_FX-6300_vs_AMD_FX-Series_FX-8320.html

and here is a past post from THG:

http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1771974/6300-8320.html

and in terms of performance without the GTX 770, it would depend on what GPU you would use.

edit: Personally, I prefer Intel over AMD. However, AMD is usually the choice for budget builds.

Intel has stronger cores so games that are poorly optimized will always run better on intel. Amd has some great power in the fx 8350 for 170 bucks. And in games that are well optimized the amd will match or beat the intel. In reality 95% of games will play the same but games like planetside 2 or saints row 4 will always be better on intel. Both are pretty great.
Nvidia makes very good smoth playing cards but you have to pay for it amd will make cheapet cards that will get amazing frame rates but the nvidia will be slightly smoother. But you will not notice any difference in the majority of games. But your wallet will amd is a much better value most of the time.
