I am looking to build a computer for $400 and was wondering if all this would make a good working one, able to do simple stuff like surf the internet and play minecraft.


ASUS F1A75-M PRO FM1 AMD A75 (Hudson D3) SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard with UEFI BIOS

AMD A6-3650 Llano 2.6GHz Socket FM1 100W Quad-Core Desktop APU (CPU + GPU) with DirectX 11 Graphic AMD Radeon HD 6530D AD3650WNGXBOX

Cooler Master extreme Power Plus Series 500W ATX12V V2.3 Power Supply (RS500-PCARD3-US)

Raidmax Tornado ATX Mid Tower Gaming Case ATX-238WU

Asus 24xDVD-RW Serial ATA Internal OEM Drive DRW-24B1ST (Black)

AMD Memory Entertainment Edition 4GB Not a kit (Single) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) 240-Pin SDRAM - AE34G1609U2

Western Digital 1 TB Caviar Blue SATA III 7200 RPM 32 MB Cache Bulk/OEM Desktop Hard Drive - WD10EALX


Just wondering if any changes need to be made, or if this will work just fine. Thanks in advance!
 
You could probably save some more money if you buy a case with a Power supply already inside it as you do not really need a 500watt Power Supply in that build something like this maybe http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811147010 there are a lot of other options in that price range as well as far as ram goes always try to get dual channel kit as that will make it run faster as oppose to just 1 stick so get 2x2gb not 1x4gb or you could even just get a 2x4gb as they don't really cost that much maybe $40
