Hello guys.Im going to build a new pc for gaming and i want to see what you guys think.
Here is the build:
AMD FX 6300 3,5Ghz Hexa Core
Sapphire Radeon R9 280X 3GB OC Edition
4GB RAM Kingston Hyper X Blue 1600mhz(in future i will add another stick)
Asus M5A78L-M LX3(i dont want to do overclock)
Fortron 500W PSU
SHENHA ATX TOWER SH-999
I have 1TB HDD
Sorry for my bad english.

Get the extra ram. Got a feeling newer games are going to start wanting more.

Also, if you can I'd recommend the gigabyte version of the board you picked. I am not saying the Asus is bad, but I've built systems with the gigabyte board and it seems solid for the money.

I wouldn´t buy that PSU, I would buy something like an seasonic/xfx/antec hcg/evga G2/corsair cs-hx series... (like a XFX Pro 750W), getting a good PSU is really important however it´s a component that usually people forget about. And maybe if you wouldnt mind spending a little more, buy another CPU like the AMD FX-8320, same socket but better.
