What would be the best gaming computer build for under $700?

[2JZRB26]

So today I want to ask the community of this forum for some good suggestions on a gaming PC build for under $700. I have a couple builds myself but I want to see if the community can make better computer builds than I can because I'm new to building custom PC's and am saving up to build my first one. And I'm not quite sure if I want my budget to be $650 or $700 so and builds less than $700 U.S dollars would be really nice. Hopefully some professionals can help me out with a solid gaming build. Here is the build I have currently:

AMD FX-6300 and AMD Radeon R9 380X: (Not AMD fanboy by the way)

And I'm getting a copy of windows for $25 on reddit softwareswap
Thanks!

Intel/GTX Build. I recommend nVidia if your planning on recording games, but you can still use it. Adding an SLI will make this build better, when your budget permits.

Thanks for the build suggestion. I've been looking into how better the performance of my build would be if I went with an Intel CPU but I couldn't figure out how to get a 4690K and stay within the boundaries of my budget. And would replacing the GTX 760 with a GTX 950 cause a big difference in performance? I kinda want the 950 because it's a newer card and has a newer architecture if I'm right.

Are you planing on over clocking?
If not, then here is ALOT better guild.
It is a little over, only buy 50$.

I definitely plan on overclocking the FX-6300 to (hopefully) to at least 4.4 - 4.5 Ghz. As of what I've seen and read online, overclocking the FX-6300 can give it the same if not close to the same performance of an Intel Core i5 CPU. But I don't mind going a locked CPU for a better performance.
