So I'm selling my current PC to my brother so I need to build a new one. Just need a double check on my build. MOBO/PSU Combo: [URL]http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.718692[/URL] CPU: [URL]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103849[/URL] GPU: [URL]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102925[/URL] HDD: [URL]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136769[/URL] DVD: [URL]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129021[/URL] I already have 8GB of RAM from a previous sale that is compatible. I plan on playing BF3/DotA2, and currently play CoD: BO, Civ 5 and various smaller titles. I was planning on getting a 32GB SSD to put my OS on but still haven't decided if I should or not.
You may aswell get a 2500k on that budget, also that case is very outdated and you can do better on the same budget.

If the ram you have is DDR3 you can take out the ram and put in an SSD/aftermarket cooler or something, someone will come in and refine it.
HORRIBLE motherboard there...

the silent pro isn't a good PSU for the price at all, only 40A on the 12V rail (480W) [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.710411[/url] 52A (624W) and cheaper [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.660241[/url] works out cheaper, better mobo [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822152185&Tpk=spinpoint%20f3[/url] better drive
