Don't get a 270x, you can get a 370, 285 or 380 for not much more.

 

Don't get the V300, for less than $10 per ssd, you can get 2 decent ones and reuse them.

 

No need for 16GB of ram

 

That DVD drive is expensive, you can get one for $15

if you have a 6300 a 8350 wont be much of an upgrade.... you will see a minimal diference and your basically wasting your maoney, the only real upgrade that you would benefit spending money on would be intel cpu, other that that keep the 6300 until you can afford intel

the 270x performs better then the 370, the 370 performs about the same as the 260x or 265(dont remmember which)
