First custom build I'm about to do mostly streaming downloading and some minimal gaming(keep in mind I'm going for a mid lvl budget build) in the end should cost around $550

Cpu: amd 6 core fx-6300 black edition
Mobo: MSI ATX DDR3 2133 Motherboard 970 GAMING
Gpu: EVGA GeForce GT 730 2GB DDR3 128bit DVI/HDMI/VGA Low Profile Graphics Card

I only chose this one because I need hdmi and it seemed decent price, otherwise I know nothing about it(suggestions)

Ram: 8GB Kit (4GBx2) DDR3 1600

Wifi: TP-LINK TL-WDN4800 Dual Band Wireless N900 PCI Express Adapter,2.4GHz 450Mbps/5Ghz 450Mbps, Include Low-profile Bracket
I know hardwire is always better but I don't have Internet so yeah plus I'll have the option for both
Psu: EVGA 500 W1 80+, 500W
Case: Apevia X-Sniper 2 Metal
And 3 led 120 mm fans for cooling

if your close to a micro center then look at the 99.00 i3 and h97mb. the cpu and mb you picked out been dead for a few years. the h97 will let you drop in an i5 if you need it latter on. the chipset on the h97 is newer then the amd mb. if your running windows 10..if you at some point put in an ssd it boot real fast. the newer mb bios and chipset made for ssd and windows 10.
