I need feedback

Spawnofleo

I have a budget of 700 dollars (U.S.D). If you can take a look at the parts I was planning to use and give me some feedback I would appreciate it a lot. P.s this is my first time and I'm very noobish so please tell me if any of the parts bellow are total garbage

Had to sacrifice a SSD for the R9 390, but it'll give you a much smoother gaming experience:

I would go for a different PSU, And im not too familiar with the CPU you have but it seems kinda sketchy to me at $70 (correct me if im wrong please).

I wouldn't sacrifice that SSD except if I was ONLY gaming on the computer. An SSD nowadays is one of the most important parts for a fast computer. I'd say if you want better graphics performance, just throw the R9 390 in there without compromising anything. I am worried that this AMD chip would bottleneck the 390 though, so I would also recommend an i3-4460.

 

Just added an SSD on @HKZeroFive 's build, because it already looks solid:

About $85 more than your budget but the performance bump compared to what you built will be very noticeable. You can still put the 960 in there and save few bucks if you're not worried about game performance as much.
 
PS: for some reason on my build it won't crawl the newegg price for the GPU, adding another $20 on the final price. It should be 279, not 299, for a total of $765.
