I think I'm going to go with:
AMD FX-Series X6 6300
AMD Radeon R9 3GB
8GB of DDR3 (2x4GB) Crucial at 1600MHz, or perhaps some HyperX Fury, also in a 2x4GB configuration (just in case one stick dies, at least the other will keep me running)😁
A 1TB Western Digital Blue HDD, and maybe a 64GB SSD to boot Windows from
EVGA Black Edition 650W
Plus some motherboard and an ultra-quiet cooler, ideally very silent xD
I already have a DVD drive, so I don't need that. What are your thoughts on this setup? Is it worth grabbing that AMD processor since it's about $167 cheaper than the Intel option?

And I have absolutely no intention of messing around with overclocking or any of those other schemes. xD

What’s actually the difference between that i5 and the AMD option? If I am forced to go with the AMD route, I would prefer to hit at least $1667 or maybe even a bit more. I need a motherboard with plenty of USB ports, and as long as the audio supports 5.1, I am satisfied; I don't require much else since my primary focus is gaming. A DVD drive is unnecessary. For the graphics card, I am looking for a 256-bit bus with 2GB or 3GB of VRAM if possible, and I don't care about extra outputs on the card—just one single monitor port will suffice. I am also considering picking up a different cooler, perhaps from Thermaltake, because my current one makes a buzzing noise that I find quite annoying. To be honest, I am not entirely sure what 😁 I should aim for to ensure I won't have to worry about this PC for at least the next three or four years after I finish shopping. I plan on buying everything from Micro Center, so if you are willing to help, please put together a build for me 😁. Any advice or guidance you can offer would be appreciated 😁.

for gaming 😁 I'm really hoping I won't have to deal with any returns or warranty claims. I checked the prices at Micro Center, but they're significantly higher than what I saw at Best Buy, which is a pretty big gap. Does anyone know if Micro Center offers any kind of discount for paying in cash?

I'm planning to pick up a PC in a few days, so I could use some help fine-tuning the configuration.
What are your thoughts on this build?
Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti OC
ASRock B85M-HDS
Intel Core i5-4570
Kingston HyperX Fury DDR3 8GB 1600MHz CL10
I am also looking for recommendations for a quiet CPU cooler, a reliable power supply, and a budget-friendly case—looks don't matter to me at all. I intend to order everything from http://www.newegg.com/ as I believe they have the best prices. Please let me know your suggestions. Thanks.

I am looking to acquire a graphics card, whether new or used, with a budget of approximately $500 $233. I would appreciate any recommendations you might have. My current setup consists of an ATI Radeon HD 4550
Intel Core2Duo 2.8
ASRock G31M-GS
2GB RAM
Xilence 400W
