Decent build for the price. Of course there will be other options for the same price but there's nothing that I wouldn't be happy with. Couple of things I'd look at is a barracuda hdd instead of blue as the blue is quite slow, and the 6300 is getting a little dated now and is on a seemingly dead socket, so it may be worth looking at a more current cpu and mobo as they generally have a better feature set.
