Budget Gaming Rig Questions

[azera]

Hey everyone! Im not new to the forums, but this is my first time posting. I made an account for the occasion, and hopefully the community can help me!

So, Im planning to build my first real gamin own rig. Im a computer buff with several years experience of fixing everything from phones to dead computers. For several months Ive spent long nights comparing parts for my own rig. Im tight for money right now, so the best performance under $650 is what I was going for.

Here's my most recent setup with parts sourced from a store local to me.

CPU- AMD FX4130- $99
Mobo- Asus M5A78L-M LX PLUS - free with purchase of the CPU
PSU- Corsair CX750M -$89
Memory- Corsair Vengeance 4GB stick -$39
Graphics Card- EVGA Geforce 660 2GB- $209
Storage- Seagate Barracuda 1TB- $75
Case- Fractal Design Core 1000- $38

Store is MicroCenter

If anyone can suggest alternative parts that offer equal performance for a lower price, It would be appreciated! The case stays though, I love that clean Scandinavian design!
I will prefer AMD processors in this build to keep cost down and for performance, but I still love intel at heart.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me!

Get a Corsair CX500(m) instead, with the money saved you could probably get a 7870 XT or a normal 7870. There is a replacement processor for that one but it will work fine.

try to get an fx6300. The 41xx chips are pretty awful in comparison.
