I'm looking to build a computer under $700-800. I went and picked out these parts. Let me know if this would be able to run games such as DayZ, Battlefield 4, and similar newer, graphic intensive games. Please give me some tips and let me know if there are any parts that I should replace. Thanks.

Would this be able to run newer games at normal/low settings with a good framerate?

what do u mean by rot really i can bet on my life that the system i have given can run games on medium to high settings with good fps......and u should have given him 2 x 4 gb of ram instead of 1 x 8 gb ......

Not really because of your GTX 750 Ti. And also, does the RAM really matter? Sizes matter, but are you going to talk about the extra and lower DIMM of RAM so you can get like 5 more FPS? If you're going to pick on that, no wonder you didn't see through the extra CPU power and the "pretty much" bottleneck on the CPU and GPU relationship.

The FX-8320 performs a really slight bit better than a i5-4670K at stock speeds. And the RAM doesn't impact much, probably 5 FPS. And the GTX 750 Ti would be the limiting factor for you, because the R9 280X can do high (and maybe even Ultra) settings quite well compared to a GTX 750 Ti (it's range is a Medium, the struggle's high).

Heh, thanks for trying, but that's only a 100 Mhz difference, and with EXTREMELY minimal OC on the 8320, I'm sure it can equal an i5-4690k.you cant compare clock speeds of two different processors with two different architectures. it doesnt work that way. intel has more efficient cores, so they dont need to be running as fast to do the same amount of work. amd has more cores, but arent as efficient.
the fx - 83xx and i5 - 46xx trade blows in games. the fx does better in games that utilize more cores, and is better at rendering (because the more cores). the i5 does better on single threaded games.
there are many reasons, but i reccomend going with intel, so the op can upgrade in the future to a broadwell i7. amd hasnt made a new fx processor in a long time, and have given up with the fx series. their focus is the apu right now.
EDIT: graphics power is important though, and the 750ti is expensive for what it can do. the r7 265/ r9 270 is about the same price and does alot better than the 750ti

Check this build, keep in mind u can't overclock it.
It should work fine with all games on high settings.

the xeon is essentially a haswell 4770 without integrated graphics (not needed) and a small drop in clock speed. this is pretty much an i7 for the price of an i5. it doesnt allow overclocking though, so it should be subbstituted for a 4690k if you want to overclock (motherboard needs to switch as well.
generic h97 mobo, crossfire support
generic 8gb ram with good timings and speed. ram is ram, the cheapest will do
1tb hdd
r9 280 from gigabyte. not as good as the 280x, but will provide high settings in most (if not all) games today. windforce cooler is good, some people have had issues but every company has some bad cards
generic atx mid tower case
rosewill 650w psu. actually a good rosewill psu (one of the few), as it is made by a good brand (i forget which, i think superflower).
generic dvd drive if needed.
overall, this will provide the best all around performance, and only sacrifices overclocking abilities with the xeon processor and h97 mobo. can be easily switched out for an unlocked i5 and a z97 mobo.
EDIT: fixed pcpp link and stuff.
