I'd recommend removing the AMD FX8320 Vishera CPU in favour of something like an i5-4670k / 4690k if you can step up. AMD FX CPUs have no place in a gaming build in 2015, end of.

I dont think dual core is enough for me.as some new games take advantage from more cpu cores

i3, uses hyperthreading so you'll get 4 cores 4 threads. It's more than enough. Also you can upgrade later. :)

... Life is a game and the checkpoints are your birthday , you will face challenges where you may not get rewarded afterwords but those are the challenges that help you improve yourself . Always live for tomorrow because you may never know when your game will be over ... I'm totally not going insane in anyway , shape or form ... I just have broken English and an open mind ...
