Also what kind of performance can I expect?

Before I was running a HD 5750 with an AMD Phenom ii X2 at 3.4GHz (dual core) with just 4gb RAM. This set up could run all my games on ultra at 40+ FPS

yes, but in gaming, bulldozer is so much worse than intel, it wouldn't even be that much of a cpu upgrade

Then you should have posted a better list to begin with.

Don't hate on people trying to help you...

Picking an AMD CPU at the present time is NOT a smart idea when Intel's CPU's easily outperform.

It's supposed to be a cheap setup, my previous PC was much worse than this and handled all my games at ultra, why would I go overboard with an i5 when a 3.6GHz bulldozer will do fine?

a 4-core bulldozer can only beat an i3-2120 when it's overclocked, but there's absolutely no upgrade path.
i5-2400 does better than any bulldozer or phenom

you may want to get that instead because of the higher clock speeds

I didn't have a clue what you meant, you just posted a list of parts.

"Here is a list of *Better* parts:" would work
