change to FX8320, trustier PSU if its possible, and a seagate drive, WD costs to much for that budget,

what i would go for. os needed?

odd needed? you could get an FX-6300 and an 760 and a cpu cooler or maybe ssd, does it need to be exactly 600?

 

but if you only care about perfomance and not about sound and stuff, this will be a great system.

add hyper 212 for 25 pound if you want quieter and cool cpu, or you can use it otherwise, for gpu or cpu or memory, whatever
