Do you just need core parts? Or, do you need everything: CPU, MOBO, RAM, Graphics Card, Storage, Case, PSU, Operating System?

I would get a 500w PSU with the money you save I would go and get a R9 270X and you are sure you run most title in ULTRA...

But....I have no clue about prices in the states!

I would suggest getting a 500W EVGA PSU and also changing the M5A97 LE R2.0 into a M5A78L-M LX3 and used the saved up cash to get an R9 270

I work for the NSA I was spying on you..... kidding...

Well it is the best compromise.... I had a R9 270X replaced then with a MSI 760..... nice card and it ran anything without problem!
