If all you are doing is gaming and regular work go for the intel i5 and r9 280. if doing streaming and recording and other stuff at the same time go amd fx6300 (still a good cpu) or spend 40 more on the 8350. if you want, go for the r9 280 you can still get 1 tb drive atleast and even and ssd if it is on sale for boot, if you get a less expensive case

No the 6300 isn't anywhere close to a I5 Amd has half the performance per clock compared to Intel but they have twice the cores. The 6300 competes with a I3 and should be used for 500$ builds or cheaper for this much money a 8350fx or I5 should be used instead with a 280.
