I am only buying from Amazon and Newegg for the sake of easy shipping, plus I don't know Mwave and OutletPC. 
I am pretty sure(after multiple threads) this is a great build for my 600 budget
The monitor is temporary, if my friend doesn't want to sell his monitor then I am choosing between one of these Acer or BenQ (Thats why its only 550~ for this leeway)
I am not sure how good Rosewill PSUs are but it received 4-5 stars on PCPartPicker and Amazon and I am sticking with 600W~ semi mod for future upgrading. I do see a Corsair for a little more and a Coolermaster
It also says on PCPartPicker that my mobo has USB 3.0 Headers but my case doesn't. It has USB 2.0 headers so that is fine correct?
What slot will my HD 6850 go in(there is no error message so I am assuming it goes in 1 of these)

@Billy Buttcheeks So have you got the HD 6850 or not? I don't think it's quite a good buy like @Paralectic wrote. It's outdated by 2 graphics architecture generations.

I don't have it yet, but for 50 dollars I can't get better :/

I am mainly spending money on the mobo, PSU, and CPU so those will be fine after awhile. I am looking to upgrade the GPU 1st once I have money 

It is good enough for what I play

League of Legends, CSGO, etc

Here's the link. I would hope that this is priced quite close and performs closely to the build you had made yourself. @Billy Buttcheeks I didn't add things like a monitor/graphics/peripherals because I don't know what you want.

I thank you for the build, but I chose the mobo, case, and PSU so I can upgrade in the future without buying extra parts 

Plus why is that CPU so expensive compared to the 6300??? I would get an i5 with that instead

Thank you, but I am just worried about the questions I have about compatibility at the moment
