I just bought a R9 270x and all i have to do is to buy every thinh else and i am good to go.
The main problem i am facing is with choosing cpu.
I have a 450w Corsair smps which will be enough so don't consider it a problem.
My confusion is whether fx 6300 (am3) will be enough for gaming now and in future and will not bottleneck.
Some games work great on less cores but higher clock speed while some like FC 4 and battlefield take multiple cores.
so just help me with this.
should i go with fx 6300 or not??
Consider bottlenecking and future proof as factors.
 
Solution
Would much rather have a Core i5-4690k for a CPU. If that is out of the budget, or already have the MB, than an FX8350 is better than the FX6300.

The FX6300 is a good deal for the performance, but not future proof at all these days, and more EOL.
