Get an Intel i5 instead with R9 390 for better performance in games. I'd look to get a SSD in the future.

1. Why do you have the thermal paste?

2. The RAM isn't on the motherboards QVL list.

3. Your spending over 15% of your budget on a case.

4. That motherboard is kinda (lack of better word) shitty.

This build is a much better than what you originally have, however if you cant do that extra bit of money go for a 380 4GB and try to add in an SSD.

Thank you guys for the response i wasn't sure what to put into my system to get the most out of it as my first build but i changed the graphics card and put in a fan for a possibly lower temp on my cpu and gpu but here it is 

 

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/bRNZ6h the reason i changed the card to a gtx 960 instead of a 380 is for the 2.0 hdmi port since i prefer to use a tv instead of a monitor but im gonna eventualy add in a 120gb samsung evo ssd 

 

So is this build good for the price now or are there some things messed up again
