Hi I'm building a new computer because I bought one from Cyberpowerpc and it broke and I shipped it to them for $45 they didn't repair it and the case was dented up which it had been insured. We sent it to UPS and UPS said CP did it so they sent it to them and now CP will fix the case, but they want $100 for shipping. I paid like $500 and the computer isn't worth that anymore. Anyway sorry about the background I am now building a new computer and I was wondering if it is a good build. *note- I am going to be overclocking

New Build
CPU- AMD FX-8320 3.5GHz 8-Core Processor - $134.99
Cooler- (Buying this later to overclock I'm doing air cooling could use advice)
Motherboard- Gigabyte GA-970A-D3P ATX AM3+ - $69.99
Memory- Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 - $49.99
Storage- Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM - $47.99
Video Card- (Already have it it was for my other pc) MSI R9 270x TF - I paid $179.99
Case- Corsair SPEC-01 - $54.99
PSU- (Already have it) Corsair CX600M - I paid $35.00? < not sure

Total= $572.94 (Not including shipping, OS, Warranties, or CD-ROM which would make it about $700)

Done! Heres the link: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/QcVMYJ

Anyways I'm really proud of this build because it will look nice and perform great! You'll be able to run almost any game 60 fps 1080p on ultra to high setting, you might have to turn it down to medium on games like the Witcher 3 but that's really for any build with hairworks and such. So you might notice it goes a little bit over $600 but that's because I added an SSD which is a good thing to have for your OS and other applications that you use frequently.

I can make you a better build via PCPartPicker, quick question before I do, would you rather have pure performance or upgradability? I recommend upgradability.

Probably upgradability because I want to do some upgrades later on.

Yup no problem! Also if you buy some of those parts used you'll save a good amount of money, just a suggestion.
