Hey guys I was thinking about a future gaming PC build that I wanted to do. I only have $800 to spend and am wanting to max out or get good settings with games at 1080p 60fps with or without other effects. (IE: Tessellation, Motion Blur, AA)

Here are my specs:

CPU: AMD FX-8320 3.5GHz 8-Core Processor

CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler

Motherboard: MSI 970 GAMING ATX AM3+ Motherboard

RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory

HDD: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive

GPU: Club 3D Radeon R9 280X 3GB royalQueen Video Card

Case: Corsair 200R ATX Mid Tower Case

PSU: Thermaltake TR2 600W ATX Power Supply

Thank you for any feedback!
