Um, the links to these products would be nice, because the info used to see if the parts are compatible aren't all there, but, I would recommend a better GPU and only get the cooler if you plan to overclock, the processor and the motherboard will go together, and I'm not exactly sure about the RAM and the Motherboard working but I'm pretty sure, if you could suppply tthe links to these parts, I could tell you more.

That's a bad choice of psu. According to http://www.eggxpert.com/forums/thread/323050.aspx CoolMax psus other than the CTG series are dangerous.

-.- you put in a 800 watt, which really isnt need at all for your build, I'd go down.
But really, that GPU is just horrible I would go with this:

You do not want to purchase that case or power supply - both from horrible brands. I wouldn't touch either one with a 10 foot pole. The liquid cooler is unnecessary and I think I would skip the SSD for now and invest in a better video card.
This would be a better setup for your budget:
PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant / Benchmarks

This^ These parts are SO much better than what you selected. No offense, but what you had was a medium settings build for an ultra price, this is high-ultra settings for a fitting price. However, I think you could save a few bucks on the RAM, but it's hard to say as prices have been all over the place lately. Also, the PSU is good, but if you have the money, a nice SeaSonic, XFX or Corsair PSU would be better. I've heard about issues with the Builder series, but then again, this may be a new revision. One last thing, do you live near a Micro Center?

So much of this. This would completely destroy the original machine.

is there a big different between intel and amd game performance ?http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/697?vs=701&i=505...
Intel 3570k peaks at a smidgen over 40% faster than the 8350 . . . so depending on the game, yes. Even though it's running at 3.4Ghz instead of 4.0Ghz for the AMD the Intel pretty much destroys it... and they both overclock well.
There are certain things the AMD will be good at... but for gaming machines you want an Intel Ivy/Sandy bridge these days until something new comes out it isn't going to change.

ok thanks man what can u tell me about window 7 or window 8 which is better for gamingI haven't seen many benchmarks that really show that huge of a difference, it's really more of a personal preference. You can read about it right here on Toms over at http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/windows-8-gaming-pe...
If you don't want to bother going through it, There was really no difference between the two that you would notice, except for in one game there was a problem running it on Win8, but since the review was from October I'm sure they've fixed that by now.

Yeah one OS or another won't make a huge difference in how your build performs. Metro I can take it or leave it but the desktop on Windows 8 is business as usual. I'm told there's apps that can manipulate the start screen to be like Windows 7 but I haven't pursued any of them.
