CPU - AMD A8-6600K 3.9GHz Quad-Core Processor

Cooler - Arctic Freezer 7 Pro Rev.2

Mobo - Gigabyte G1.Sniper A88X

Memory - Some sort of Mushkin 2x4 DDR3

Storage - Seagate ST2000DM 2TB SATA
Toshiba MKNSSDCR 120GB

Video Card - Gigabyte R9 270X

Power Supply - Inter-Tech Coba Nitrox 800W PSU, 80 Plus Silver, Modular

Optical Drive - Asus DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD Writer

Operating System - Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 (OEM) (64-bit)

How will this build perform in newer games like AC4, BF4, Crysis 3, Skyrim and such?

And I'm also wondering if this fits in my Thermaltake V3 BlackX case?


Posted this yesterday. Now I ask, what should I change?
A bit of side info.
First, the mobo: I only have access to Gigabyte motherboards. And really not that many. I found a Gigabyte S1150 GA-H97N-WIFI mobo but it's a tad expensive.
Second, the CPU: I dont have access to i3 4130 or 4150. I can get an i5 4xxx but then I'm over my budget.
Third, the PSU: I only have access to PSU's from Inter-Tech, Thermaltake, Fractal Design, Coolmax, Powerlogic and Armageddon.
Fourth, the cooling: I have access to a bunch of coolers. No more on that.
Fifth, the graphics card: I only have access to Gigabyte ones.

As you can see, living in Iceland limits my choices ALOT. Plus everything costs around 45% more here than in the USA.

Okay. I found this CPU: AMD Piledriver X6 FX-6300
This motherboard: Gigabyte AM3+ GA-990FXA-UD3
And this PSU: Corsair RM650 Modular PSU 80P Gold

Is this good enough? :)

One more thing, about the GPU, should I get Gigabyte GTX 770OC 4GB or Gigabyte R9 270X 4GB?
 


Much better and grab the 770.

One more question, when do you intend to upgrade this build? If its soonish you can just grab a cheap pentium then upgrade to an i5 later on. Assuming they sell those where you are.

Don't plan on upgrading more than that anytime soon :) I have pretty limited money and that right there is most likely my final decicion for a while :) Thank you :)

That's perfect. I would personally choose the 770OC. Enjoy.

Afraid it's not like that in Iceland :/ The GTX770 4GB costs around $500 here and the GTX970 costs around $650 :/ Fuck Iceland. I'm afraid that the GTX970 is out of my price range :/ Even the GTX770 is pushing it.
