Additional Comments:
-I don't know how many watts for the PSU I need for this build so I need help with that.
-For the motherboard should I go for ASRock 770 or Asrock 870?
-For the ram should I buy one Kingston 4GB (2 x 2GB) and buy another one later or should i just get the Kingston 8GB (2x4GB)
-Is the Stock Cooler for the CPU good enough to keep the CPU cool?
-I don't mind lowering the resolution or lowering in game settings to get good frames per second.
-I might get a sound card if the Integrates sound card on the motherboard isn't good.
