Help with New Gaming PC

I just created a list of parts for my new gaming PC. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/XLPgVn I am in a $470 budget without the rebates. I just wanted to ask if the PC I put together will be able to record Minecraft and have it on medium settings with good fps. I would also be playing some 1080p games like Battlefront and GTA V. Thanks.

For all the people about to scream and cry about the corsair cx psu: its a pretty basic build, he should be fine.

I'm sorry but that build is $504 without rebates that is way past my budget. But do you think the PC i built was great for what i needed it to do?

Not really. The PSU is garbage and the motherboard needs a BIOS update so as to work with the CPU
