For my budget AMD build I chose the FX 6300, is this part for the Piledriver series or Bulldozer series of AMD FX CPU's?

Piledriver I believe. The two architectures are fairly similar though I think. Don't get terribly worried about which architecture it is from. Just worry about performance and price. The FX 6300 is a solid choice by the way.

I would get a better motherboard, other than that it looks solid. I would also go with Windows 7, but it's just personal preference.

Much nicer, though I would go with the Asus M5A97 R2.0. Again, just personal preference.

The MSI is good, the ASRock is 760G and I would get at least a 970 board for the FX 6300 which the MSI obviously is.
