Hello, it's been now 2 or 3 months that I started choosing all the parts for my long-term pc build project. At first, as many others I was going for a very simple pc with as low budget as possible and wasn't even expecting to buy and build it at all. Then some time passed and I realized that I could take all the time I want to get the money to build my pc, so I began chosing parts with this way of thinking and also with the option that I have a friend that plan on selling his GTX 760 2GB pretty soon after he gets the GTX 980.
Now that the introduction is made, I want to explain my needs. No matter what I use, from my ipod to my dad's pc and even my actual laptop, I ALWAYS get to the very limit of the machine, not being able to do everything I really want to. I'm sure lots of you also experienced this and this is why I want to build my own computer.
Basically, I am a gamer. I know how much cooling is important in a computer because of my crappy HP Envy m6 that over-heated countless times, the CPU going over 90 celcius, ending up with the entire machine shutting down and since it happened many times, my overall performance have been reduced a LOT during the last year I've got this laptop.
So, there is my build:

The things I DON'T want to change are:
-The GTX 760 2GB (since I get it for 200$ from my friend that never overclocked it, like-new quality)
-I don't have any need for any SSD
-Only need the most basic DVD/CD reader/burner
-The awesome cooling that the Rosewill Armor-Evo is known for
The things I would like to have someone help me with:
-I don't know if I should take the AMD FX 6300 or the FX 8530 but I simply want the best performance/price ratio and also I don't want to OverClock anything.
-I have some difficulties chosing the right motherboard even if the Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3 seems like a pretty great one.
-I took the ram with the lowest price for the best reviews but there might be better for less, I just want to know.
Finally, I would like to know what some more experienced people think of my choices and if there is possibilities for improvements, I would like to know them.
Btw, I would appreciate it to stay under the 900$ (CAD)
Thanks for the help and sorry for the ridiculous lenght of this post, I just want my project to end well.
