Im looking to build my first pc and am wondering if the current configuration is adequate for the following games: http://au.pcpartpicker.com/user/TheFelixCow/saved/
Some games I plan on playing:
Arma
Star citizen
Planetary annihilation
Planetside 2
And yeah thats pretty much it!

I also want to do some video editing etc hence the 8 core cpu.

Thanks

The reason I'm using the amd fx is because its a very good priced 8 core 4ghz processor where as an 8 core intel would cost up to 1000$ Its just a cheaper more efficient option

In all due respect rockie i wanted to know if the parts i had assembled would be enough to run the games i plan on playing. I would take advice on how to improve the components but not a completely new pc build....
