I really need a good gaming that can run Minecraft at about 200 fps no matter how many mods there are, so I created this build and just want to know if I could run MC with about 200-250 mods with at least 100 fps. Also, I would like to se if these parts are compatible with each other :)

well depends on the mods really but for the most part i could say yes but if your using really resource hungry mods like optifine and shaders i would say maybe a bit below 60

and the system is compatible (you maybe will need to update BIOS before using it, but it's only for some vishera cpu's)

(but i'm guessing there is going to be only like 50 intensive mods so i would say this would get even more than 100fps
 
NO computer will run minecraft at a consistent 200FPS for long. Its more intense than you think.

Most monitors will only display 60FPS, so anything more is completely pointless anyway. Which is the case for the monitor you chose.
Unrealistic expectations lead to major but groundless disappointment.

Anyway all that aside, AMD CPUs tend to perform badly in Minecraft, Minecraft only really uses a single core so an Intel I3 can even beat the FX8350 in FPS on Minecraft specifically. I would suggest going with an Intel I5 based setup.

That CPU cooler is no better than AMD stock cooling, so drop it. Get at least a Coolermaster Hyper 212 EVO for around 30$ if you want a CPU cooler that isn't stock.

Also you chose an HDD that is optimized for recording video feeds. Get a standard Barracuda 7200RPM drive.

There is no way to give you a number, it will be ENOUGH FPS. But it depends a lot on how you play minecraft.

For example, if you use a lot of redstone or are traveling like on railway then it will be different from just building.

It will give enough FPS. Which is all you need.
 


Minecraft almost exclusively uses your CPU, the GTX760 is a better card than the R7 265 and GTX750ti, but it will not help in minecraft, only in other games.
