First build, does this look good?

[HxCOLE]

Building my first PC mostly for gaming and some video editing. I have a max budget of 1300 and that includes OS and a monitor.

I put this together but I'm not too sure just how powerful this is.

Will I be able to max out some upcoming games? Any suggestions for other parts? Do all the parts fit with each other?

Any advice or feedback is great, thanks.

THat's looking good bro. But the new AMD cards will be revealed today. If I were you, I'd wait for it. They're saying the 7970's successor is more powerful by a lot.

Here is nice build. You can overclock the cpu easily to the same speed as the 8350.

Looking good!I'd get a different after market cpu cooler myself though.As for gaming yeah you'll be able to play all games on ultra settings.

Hey all, thanks for all the feedback so far!

Did you have any recommendations for a CPU cooler for around the same price?

I'm pretty new to this so I'm not sure what cooler would be better.
