I'd recommend Intel. It's much more better, unless you want to wait for ZEN. You'll need to have to wait till 2017.

 

Also, what is the total budget of the system?

Personally I would change a few things around. if its supposed to be a midrange rig there is no need to have 16gb of ram (I have 32gb and have never gone over 7gb usage with three monitors). idk what the fuck that keyboard is, but for 50 bucks there are definatly better options I think. other than that... i think 3gb vram MIGHT be an issue heading forward. I have 4gb and I have pushed it close several times.

If you want a 100$ ish keyboard, I'd recommend a Coolermaster CM Storm Quickfire TK, it's great.

really tring to stay around the $50 range i could look thru new egg fry and micro center tho

If you are on the 40-50$ range, a membrane gaming keyboard like a Redragon K552 KUMARA on Amazon for just under 40$, it's a pretty good value.

This is probably better in every way minus the mass-storage.
