Hello,
its my first time building a gaming pc by myself. I don't know really much about how different parts work with each other so I need your help.
I would mostly be using this pc for Video editing and gaming(games such as Counter Strike Global Offensive, Minecraft, Black Ops 2)
I am curios if I could play these games on max settings with anti aliasing on max?
My set up:
Processor: AMD FX 8320 Octa-Core Prozessor (3,5GHz, Socket AM3+, 16MB Cache, 125 Watt)
Motherboard: MSI FM2-A75MA-E35 Mainboard Sockel FM2 (micro-ATX, AMD A75, DVI, HDMI, 6x SATA III, 4x USB 3.0
Video Card: Sapphire HD7850 Grafikkarte (PCI-e, 2048MB, GDDR5 Speicher, DVI-I, DVI-D, HDMI, DP, 1 GPU)
RAM: Corsair Vengeance Blau 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1600 MHz (PC3 12800) Desktop Arbeitsspeicher (CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9B)
HDD: eagate Barracuda ST3000DM001 interne Festplatte 3TB (8,9 cm (3,5 Zoll), 7200rpm, 64MB Cache, SATA III)
Power Supply: Sharkoon WPM600
I think of overclocking the processor and the video card. What kind of other cooler would I need?
Thanks!

First of all, I hope that you know that you need more things to make your pc work, like a power supply for example?
If you look on youtube you can probably find plenty of video's on how this system will perform. If you want to overclock your CPU you will need a third party CPU cooler or else your cpu will overheat

I am sorry, I do know about the powersupply, I forgot to mention it.
It will be a Sharkoon WPM600
For the third party cpu cooler, I would need your help.

Without Hdd and Power Supply you can get a better cpu (Rendering) or better GPU (more fps,better future proof)

You can chose G3258 and r9 280x or i5 with r9 270x the i5 will support bf4 better. Also you can go with a Xeon 4 core 8 threads its the intel i7 4770 with no overclocking and no igpuI am sorry, but I don't understand whats so bad about the fx 8350. Is it because you can't upgrade it? Like after a year or so the games wont run on it?

This should help you out now.
CPU: Amd Fx 8350 should be able to do whatever you want. If you are playing games from frostbite BF4 the Fx is better than some intel i5. The socket is dead.. and so is the intel i5 4670k. You can overclock this to about some what 4.4 ghz or even more.
Cooler: The standard cooler for all overclocker, cheap and does the job better than some water coolers.
Motherboard: Support all the AMD Fx, and support Cross-Fire. This means in the future you can add another Graphics card, having 2 r9 280x
Memory: Great brand, 1600mhz pretty good and a good voltage
GPU: Alright this is like the Base of a gaming pc. R9 280x can MAX Out alot of games and with the fx 8350 and BF4 its just way better than a intel i5. On minecraft it just rekts the game, giving so much fps. Call Of Duty is amazing with this graphics card, way better graphics than the PS4 and Xbox One. While Recording you should be getting over 60 fps on 1080p. This build can also support 1440p and over 3 monitors running 1080p. You can also live stream on twitch no problem, well depending on your internet speed.
Overall this pc is epic

Memory: Great brand, 1600mhz pretty good and a good voltage
GPU: Alright this is like the Base of a gaming pc. R9 280x can MAX Out alot of games and with the fx 8350 and BF4 its just way better than a intel i5. On minecraft it just rekts the game, giving so much fps. Call Of Duty is amazing with this graphics card, way better graphics than the PS4 and Xbox One. While Recording you should be getting over 60 fps on 1080p. This build can also support 1440p and over 3 monitors running 1080p. You can also live stream on twitch no problem, well depending on your internet speed.
Overall this pc is epic

This should help you out now. CPU: Amd Fx 8350 should be able to do whatever you want. If you are playing games from frostbite BF4 the Fx is better than some intel i5. The socket is dead.. and so is the intel i5 4670k. You can overclock this to about some what 4.4 ghz or even more.
Cooler: The standard cooler for all overclocker, cheap and does the job better than some water coolers.
Motherboard: Support all the AMD Fx, and support Cross-Fire. This means in the future you can add another Graphics card, having 2 r9 280x

Oh my god, thank you! The problem now I have is that I can't find the Twin Frozr Gaming editon of this, (I don't really know if that matters) I can only get the MSI R9 280X GAMING 3072MB GDDR5.
And a question, if I decide to overclock my Processor, I need to get this Cooler Master Hyper which you suggested INSTEAD of the one in the fx-8350? And what If I don't overclock it, I could use the normal one, right?
Btw, I love you!
Thanks for wasting your time for this research! -

Get a locked i5 with a cheap motherboard and a GTX 970 if you can. The gaming performance would be much better.
