Next gen gaming build

Hi there

I saw allot post's and advice like this on forum. But in my country available parts are really limited. So i made what i think is best i can get for my money with parts that are on my disposal. I would like for you guys to tell me if something really shouldn't be there and then i will try to past some my other options...

I went for AMD FX-8350 because all new consoles have 8 core processors...

for GPU i always liked Nvidia more then amd Radeon and from what i red there software for next gen is more promising right now (correct me if im wrong)

SSD would be nice but i do not have cash for it at moment so i thought its better if i buy it later then to cut from main components right now...

I'm noob in building so I'm open to hear all critics and advice!

good build, I would get a 8320 and save a few $$, it can easily o/c to 8350 and a cheaper mobo around $90, perhaps put the savings to a better GPU, like a 770.

I know part availability might be a concern, check to see if you could get access to the ones on this spec. Just made a couple of manufacturer tweaks which should not degrade performance and it made enough room for a solid state drive for your operating system:

Conversely, you could remove the SSD and upgrade to a 770. If you want to play some of the more demanding titles like BF3, that might be a better investment. If you do end up using the spec I sent, make sure that you don't connect the SATA cables to the 1TB hard drive until Windows has installed. If you have them both connected, it will write master boot record files to both disks. Doesn't sound like such a bad thing but it means you'll have to have both those hard drives functional and installed in the computer in order to operate windows. That means no upgrading the hard drive when you fill it up or upgrading your SSD to accommodate more program files at high access speeds.
