Specs:
MSI 950gtx 2gb
FX 6300BE 3,5ghz
1x4gb ram 1333mhz
GA-M68MT-S2 mobo
VP500 500W

Hello everyone,
I'm going to upgrade few of my PC's components. Those are the mobo, computer case, RAM and a cooler for CPU. Here's how it looks like.

my stock cooler for CPU --> Fortis 2 XE1226
my RAM --> 2x4 gb 1600 mhz
my mobo --> 78LMT-USB3 rev 6.0

And i would like and advice. Is everything going to be alright, or should i change few elements?
I think i have chosen good, but i am not after all those things. So i is everything ok?
And no, i won't go into an intel.

You might want to spend the extra piece of cash on 16 GB of RAM instead, because that's pretty much the standard nowadays. If you game and/or video render it'll be much more efficient rather than only 8GB.

Also you won't need a super heavy duty CPU cooler like the Fortis 2 XE1226 unless you're overclocking your FX 6300 to 4.4 GHz+. If you are, go get that cooler.

However if you're only overclocking to around 4.0 - 4.2 GHz you can save money and get a Hyper 212 EVO. With that cooler you can save a few bucks and put that towards 16GB of RAM, as well as achieve a decent o.c with good temps.

Well, i think i won't need more than 8gb, anyway at my country RAM isn't that cheap so i would pay a lot.

Yep, you are right i am going to overclock max 4.2 GHz, so as you said i will choose the Hyper 212 EVO.

Thank you very much :)
