Power Supply: Corsair CX600

CPU Cooler: Standard one from AMD
Case fans: original case fans
OS: Windows 8.1 64 bit
Hard Drive: Seagate 1TB 7200RPM

Decent spec - if you have a little wiggle room in your budget, the only changes I would consider are:

-Switching to a CS instead of CS power supply (the CX's are crap - I went through 2 of them before I switched)
-Upgrade from the stock cooler to a 212 EVO - the FX chips run hot and though you probably won't burn it up unless you overclock, it will still make you nervous if you look at the CPU temps - especially when you're encoding video
-whatever extra funds you have should go to your GPU - the 960 is a proficient card but you'll see a significant improvement in stability and FPS with an overclocked 970

Those are just a couple of things to consider - you could definitely stick with what you have, but you'll find yourself wanting...
