CPU: Phenom II X4 925

GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 750 1GB Superclocked Video Card

RAM: G.Skill Sniper Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1866 Memory

MOBO: MSI 970 GAMING ATX AM3+ Motherboard

CPU Fan/ Case Fans: Cooler Master Hyper TX3 and 4 Corsair Air Series AF120 Quiet Editions

If I need to list anything else, just ask me.

If the stock speed of that CPU is 2.8Ghz then I'd say take it up to 3.5Ghz, thats how far I got my old Athlon X2 up to on a 970 chipset. I doubt you'll be able to get it much past that anyway. Oh and keep your eye on those temps! Keep it below 65/70 and stress.
