Hello I have put this list of parts over the past few days. I think it will all work together I've asked one of my friends and said it should work, but i wanted a second opinion

CPU-AMD FX-8350 Vishera 4.0GHz
Motherboard-GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3 AM3+
Graphic Card- SAPPHIRE 100351SR Radeon HD 7970
Ram- Crucial Ballistix Sport XT 16GB
Hard Drive- Western Digital WD Blue WD10EZEX 1TB
SSD- Kingston HyperX 3K SH103S3/120G 2.5" 120GB
Case-Thermaltake Chaser MK-I (VN300M1W2N)
Power-CORSAIR Builder Series CX600 600W
DvD burner- ASUS 24X DVD Burner
OS-Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64-bit
Monitor-ASUS VN247H-P Black 23.6"

That is the part list I'm also wondering if i'm missing any cable, and I want to be able to hook this up to my wifi. I know that i need a wireless card but I don't know what to look for in one. Thank you for your time also if this helps i'm using newegg to buy everything.

1- Get a GTX 770
2- Get a Samsung 840 Pro 128 GB
3- if you cant pay for the GTX 770 , lower the Ram to 8G and get it.
4- Get at least 650W power supply.
5- Get DDR3 1866 Memory
6- choose only IPS monitor

The 840 pro is a great ssd but if the ssd is only going to be used for boot and a few programs, the difference isn't going to be that great especially if there is a decent cost difference.

a 600w quality psu is enough since it is a single gpu.

1866 ram is not necessary as performance benefits are minimal.

IPS panel monitors are great, but also more expensive and depends on how much the OP is willing to invest in a screen.

1866 are the same price of 1600

and he needs 650 watts for additional cards for example , do you know how much a sound card with 600ohm amplifier draws ?

and no one today buys non IPS monitors but the one who are novice , IPS now can be found at very low price ...
