Hi

I recently purchased an AMD R9 270X Devil Edition for my pre-built heavily modified PC. instead of buying a CPU, Motherboard and RAM which is what I should have gotten due to the fact that the R9 270X isn't compatible with my Motherboard. Anyway, now with the R9 270X at bay, I am now looking to get a different CPU, motherboard and RAM. I will mainly be focusing on purchasing the motherboard and CPU first. I have seen reviews and unboxing of the FX 6300 and the Asus M5A97 R2.0 EVO and apparently they seem to suit my needs decently. My CPU probably will be upgraded later on and an aftermarket heatsink will also be added such as the Hyper 212 EVO. Don't really need to focus on the RAM however, any thoughts on this?

Thanks.
