Cooler Master RR-HT2-28PK-R1

NZXT S340

EVGA SuperNOVA NEX 650W 80+ Gold 

Sapphire Radeon R7 260X 2GB gddr5 (i'm going to add this later)

I would much rather go with a cheap Intel build.

Also the PSU is probably overkill.

I would recommend to you reading this:

http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/3061-build-plan-thread-recommendations-please-read-before-posting/

And edit your post accordingly. We need to know stuff like budget, location, purpose and if you want to upgrade and stuff.

 

Looks alright for a gaming build, but I would probably recommend spending a bit more on the GPU (when you end up buying it) to get a R9 270 or something.

Or you can go for a 2nd hand GPU. 

And I think you're better off getting 'just' an HDD instead of an SSD. Or do you have a spare HDD already?

Look, give us a budget, location, resolution and games you'll be playing and we'll give you a build.

Intel is better if you want to have an upgrade path.

If you are not planning to upgrade with the same mothernoard, this CPU is good.

It's better than the Pentium CPU mostly.

That SSD is very good and in combination with a HDD it's great.

But I'm not sure if I can say it's a good idea, if you have such a low budget.

Why not just go with that HDD or get a cheap 1TB HDD and spend the money you saved on getting an i3 with some good motherboard?

That way you have the option to upgrade to an i5 or i7 CPU.
