i would personally prefer an i3 6100 vs the fx 6300 mostly because it has an upgrade path.

i changed some things from my last list. my new list is http://pcpartpicker.com/list/mGFQqk and my last list was http://pcpartpicker.com/list/Gjx7TH. thanks.

I would purchase an rx480 as a gpu. A bit more expensive, but at a significant performance increase. Also, I would recommend gettin a 1x8 stick if ram, that way if you ever need more it will be easier to upgrade. Also, consider getting a higher quality sad, like an 850 evo, or add a fast hdd to the build.

The i3 is much better, take a look at this video. It's also 4 threads, many people forget that.

You might want to go for the rx 470/4gb 480 instead, the 960 was never great to begin with and now it is definitely not a good value.
