Solution
here is the build I suggest, I don't know what country you are in, nor what your budget is, but here is my suggestion
the G4650 is 7th gen CPU, so is the B250 Board, which can let you upgrade to I7-7700 CPU if you so desires,
the performance of the G4560 will be about 2 times faster than an FX8350 (PassMark and CPUboss Benchmark scores show this) for half the price. of the old AMD CPU. Upgraded your HDD you listed for 6$ more and now you have 1 TB instead of 500gb. cut down that wildly over Wattage power supply you had, the intel system does not need so much power and the 450W not only save you 40$ but also better quality.
now you have a fresh computer ! 600$ that has capability to expand to I7 later, SSD even esily may it be SATR of...

Ty The Paladin, i think i'm going to follow your suggestion, but one last doubt, can i use the CPU Cooler that comes with the Intel G4620 Kaby Lake until i get the i7 and buy the one listed above? Also, i found the same RAM but with 2800MHz, and a Corsair CX450M 450W ATX, it will work too?
