Hey everyone, I want to build a budget gaming and rendering workstation for $900, Just the cpu..
So i went to a local retailer and he gave me this build.

AMD eight core fx 8350
MA97 r2.0 Motherboard
8GB Vegeance DDR3 RAM
1tb HDD
ANTEC GX900 cabinet
550W Power supply
2gb AMD radeon r7 260x

Can this pc handle all types of architectural and real time rendering stuffs?
Software's i use: 3ds max with vray, after effects, Lumion, Unreal engine, Unity and Cryengine..

I heard that AMD processors usually over heat a lot, How can i overcome this? What kind of cabinet, Fans and cooling system will keep my eight core cpu cool while gaming and rendering?
I am really confused with this cooling system, Because i don't want to burn my pc while rendering..
