I have a little over $500 to spend to upgrade my computer. My PSU went out in my old one so I figured why not upgrade. The things I am looking to upgrade are-
Power Supply-
Motherboard-
CPU-
RAM-
And possibly get a SSD. I mostly use the computer for playing games but I don't need to be able to max the settings out until I can actually afford it. I will use my old case, monitor, video card (Radeon HD 6770), etc...
I have been looking around and I am leaning towards getting-
AMD FX-4170 4.2GHz Quad-Core Processor

ASRock 990FX Extreme4 ATX AM3+ Motherboard

G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1866 Memory

OCZ 700W ATX12V / EPS12V Power Supply

Samsung 830 Series 128GB 2.5" Solid State Disk

Those parts are going to cost me around $515. If anyone has any opinions or better ideas for me please let me know. I will be looking to upgrade the video card and a few other things in a couple of months, but for now I just want a fairly decent computer that will be easily upgradable.
