Ehh, you could go with a better GPU.

My honest opinion? I wouldn't touch this build with a 10 foot pole. Is your budget $600?

570$ is my budget, I'm waiting for another price drop, I'm aiming to play games on medium at 60-120 FPS

I need 4 Gigs of vram,also I'm going for an all and build with a 570$ budget

Why do you want an AMD CPU? Intel is way better for gaming, AMD CPUs have much worse minimum framerates and usually worse average ones too. AMD GPUs are awesome for gaming, but the CPUs are lousy. And 4GB VRAM is pretty useless on an R9 270x. If you want a GPU that actually makes good use of 4GB for gaming you need to go with an R9 290 or better. A 2GB R9 285 is quite a bit stronger than a 4GB R9 270x.

 

4GB isn't all that important for 1080p gaming. Witcher 3 is probably the most difficult game out there to run right now, and on my GTX 970 it only uses about 1.8 GB of VRAM. If you read the settings guide GamersNexus did for GTA V, they show extremely minimal performance difference between using normal and very high textures on a 2GB R9 270x, so a 4GB card isn't going to outperform a 2GB card, especially not a more powerful 2GB card. 

 

The build @i_build_nanosuits posted is extremely efficient for gaming performance per dollar spent, though I'd switch the CPU to an i5-4440 so you don't have to deal with possibly having to update the BIOS on your board to support the i5-4460. The locked i5s are extremely strong gaming CPUs, especially for the price, being barely above the much weaker FX-8350.

this b85 gaming board from gigabyte is a newly released board, it will support any socket 1150 cpu out of the box including the i5-4460...guaranteed.

Oh my, why are you going with an FX-8xxx CPU...

You are making the same mistake I did, games hate that low IPC, I was stuck with that thing for 2 years and I hated it so much. I have hardware monitor on my 2nd screen and it either have a really high CPU usage that leads to lower GPU usage (bottleneck) or only one or two cores are used and the rest are idle which also results in low framerate. I'm glad I got an i7 last week so I can finally run away from the FX-8. Most benchmark will show that the average of a FX-8 is not so bad but the big differences are in the minimum framerates, my i7's minimum is my FX-8350's average in Dirt Rally, Metro 2033 and Assassin's Creed, an i5 is just a non-hyperthreaded i7 so an i5 would definitely beats the FX-8350, let alone a FX-8320. Some benchmarks over the internet also shows an i3 outperforms a FX-8350 in some games.

 

That motherboard may not have the enough power to run that thing and you may have to deal with high temperatures.

I would advice a locked i5 instead.

 

EDIT: I noticed you are going to use the stock cooler since you didn't include a CPU cooler in the list. How could you live with this noise?!

The R9 270X wouldn't be able to handle a high resolution or high amount of anti-aliasing before it can fill up 2GB.

When I make a post, unless I am the original poster or ask for a reply, don't bother replying or quoting me because I don't read them.

Fucking Hell that's loud

That is not how loud all of them are by the way. There was something wrong with that cooler.

@Mods_o_joy

 

Mine make that noise, same with other YouTube videos of the same CPU cooler...

Here is a FX-8320, they all use the same cooler as the FX-8350, so they will all get loud.

 

AMD does not allow the FX-8 to go beyond 65 degrees so they'll kick the fan speed to 100% (5000+ RPM) when it gets near 60 degrees....which is quite often.

Now that is better.

But can you try and get the R9 285 instead? They are the same price pretty much.

R9 270X 4GB is a waste of money because it will slow down before it could use more than 2GB, it is not powerful enough to handle those textures, resolution and anti-aliasing that would go beyond 2GB.

 

I also got that exact same R9 270X model for my first build then I upgraded to a R9 290. I can't even get it to pass 1,5GB since it cannot handle lots of anti-aliasing or resolution anyway.
