You overspent on a good bit of stuff as well.

I want build completely an AMD system so thx but please suggest amd cpu and gpu

 

Intel has more power for a core, and it obviously fits in your budget!

A GTX 780 has more power than a 280X, you're better off going with that. Also the fluff Nvidia throws at you. Again, it fits in your budget, why not have more power in your system!

yeah but i already have Intel 3770k so that's why this time i want go with amd

 

Switching to less power isn't spicing anything up, it's making you regret switching to a less powerful product.

maybe game developer can now focus on multicore cpu and take advantage of it.

As a matter of facts developer still dont really use multicore ATM, and I really dont see it happen in the near future. But there's no point stopping you if you want an AMD rig, so something like dragoon's build look good, you may want a 290x if you have more budget~

not really all 8 cores in the PS4 is used

 

the game developers only able to use 6 of the total 8 cores

 

the remaining 2 core is for OS 

 

and 5GB of RAM is accessable

if you want to make your FX to reach 4.7GHz which is similar to the FX9590
the CPU will draw 220 watts
290X are known to draw up to max 400 Watts peak
 
750 Watts will be safe with a bit of head room
