Hi, so... I want to upgrade my pc with a cpu+mobo. First, what cpu+mobo combo do you guys recommend (250$ max) ? Second, was this computer worth the money ? PS: I'm from Romania so the prices are a bit different here.
CPU: FX 6300 127$ (new) 4.5GHz 1.4v (what i'd want to buy)
CPU Cooler: EVO 212 42$ (new)
GPU: Gigabyte R9 270 199$ (new)
MOBO: GA-970A-UD3P 98$ (new) (what i'd want to buy)
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 2x2GB 25$ (used)
PSU: 600W Be Quiet 37$ (looks new-got it from a guy), future proof IMO
HDD: WD Black 1TB 50$ (new-got it from a guy), 100% health
SSD: OCZ 32gb 25$ (used)
CASE: Zalman Z3 Plus 55$ (new)
I maybe payed too much for the SSD but idk about the rest.

 
I would have chosen and Intel build if I could. You have a motherboard you can overclock your CPU, so that's a very good choice and the CPU cooler should have cost a little less. 32Gb is far too small for a SSD. It will barely hold the OS and nothing else.

Are these $US? Upgrading to 8Gb needs to be a priority.

What cpu+mobo combo do you recommend to get for let's say 250$ ? A future proof one. BTW I changed the post a bit because I didn't actually bought the cpu and mobo but I'm planing on buying them.
