Hello, I don't know if this is the right section to post this thread. If I am wrong, then I am sorry for that.
This is probably a very common question around the globe building a budget gaming pc. Well, I live in Bangladesh. Prices of electronics are very high here.
I want to build a pc that could support me at least 5 years in gaming with high graphics support.
My personal choices are 1. CPU- AMD FX 8350, 2. Motherboard- MSI 970A-G43 AMD, 3. GPU- Sapphire R9 270x Vapour-X, 4. RAM- Team 8GB DDR3 1660Mhz, 5.HDD- 1TB Western Digital.

I am also studying civil Engineering. So I will run software like 3d max, Autocad, Ansys etc.
So if possible then tell this pc will at least run 5-6 years without giving me any type of tension.
Thanks in advance.

You really need to provide a budget.

Here's a starter -

CPU: AMD FX-8320 3.5GHz 8-Core Processor ($149.95 @ SuperBiiz)
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler ($24.99 @ Newegg)
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-970A-D3P ATX AM3+/AM3 Motherboard ($54.99 @ NCIX US)
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-2133 Memory ($84.98 @ OutletPC)
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($51.98 @ OutletPC)
Video Card: MSI Radeon R9 270X 2GB TWIN FROZR Video Card ($179.99 @ Newegg)
Case: Corsair 300R ATX Mid Tower Case ($49.99 @ Micro Center)
Power Supply: Antec High Current Gamer 520W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply ($76.92 @ Amazon)

Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8 (OEM) (64-bit) ($97.98 @ OutletPC)
Total: $771.77

The 8320 can be easily overclcoked to match the 8350.

The MSI 970a G43 is not a very good motherboard.

I am not a perfectionist about pc. But can you tell why I have to buy a cpu cooler when there is a stock one? And will your provided configuration last 5 year?
