Some points: Don't get mismatching extra cases fans. You don't need extra fans with that build, it will do just fine with the included one in the case I know it's not much, but you don't need the thermal compound as the processor has an included heatsink and fan. The pre-applied stuff will do just fine Your motherboard has USB 3.0 headers, the case has no USB 3.0 ports I wouldn't recommend an AMD processor. They haven't been that great lately, so it's better to spend a bit more money to get an Intel i3 (or even an i5 if you have the money), which will do you a lot better in the long run The GPU is good, although I'm not sure about the AMD. I have the nVidia Geforce version of that card, and it runs beautifully. Personally, I would recommend getting a nVidia, but if you can't find one that fits your budget, that card should probably do you fine.

I went ahead and put together a modified build for you. It's a $40 increase at purchase, and ends up an $85 increase after rebates, but these parts are better and should last you a lot longer. Matter of fact, I have the same mobo and GPU in my build as the ones in this list, and it runs amazingly. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/tkVhzy

Also, if you have any questions, feel free to ask me, as well as check out these places, which helped me a lot when I was building my PC: LinusTechTips YouTube channel LinusTechTips Community Forum

Thanks man, if i had the budget to go over $400 then i agree with what you have above but i dont really have much wiggle room too. Also i got rid of the mobo fans and got a cpu cooler instead because of amds overheating situation.
