hi, Im thinking of moving onto a PC this Christmas, but with a budget of £400 im constantly being told i cannot get a good pc for games such as ARMA 3 and DAYZ standalone etc.. i have found some parts for a PC which cost under £350 but Im just wondering if i can get any better parts for £400. here are the parts
CPU- AMD FX-6300 Vishera 3.5GHz
Motherboard- ASUS M5A78L-M/USB3 AM3+ AMD 760G
Case- Fractal Core 1000
PSU- EVGA 100-W1-500-KR 500W
GPU- PowerColor AX7850 2GBD5-DH Radeon HD 7850
RAM- HyperX XMP Blu Series 4GB DDR3 1600
Storage- Seagate Barracuda ST500DM002 500GB 7200 RPM 16MB
OS- Windows 8

i already have a monitor and mouse/keyboard and headset etc.. so i dont need any money left over for them.
I would appreciate it if anyone could improve this set up for me, thanks
