Looks good, however the GPU is a little outdated. I recommend spending a very small amount more and getting a 660

Clio wrote Looks good, however the GPU is a little outdated. I recommend spending a very small amount more and getting a 660GTX 660 is almost 3 years old so would be out-dated too.
OP- Pretty low-end and old, out-dated components. The GTX 560 perform similar to the GT 740 or GTX 750, so it's not horrible but I'd upgrade it asap. AM3+ is a dead socket, your only logical upgrade for a CPU is the FX-8320, unless you switch to Intel.
Basically, it's alright, I've seen worse but it could do with some upgrades.

Honestly it depends how much you're spending on it. How much are you spending?

I'd shoot for an FX 9590 for the cpu and the gpu you could go anything in the R9 series and it'd perform well.

Your RAM is quite slow I would recommend at least 1600MHz and above to be able to play any serious games.
Also GPU is very old and would almost be useless with modern games on anything more than low quality.
PSU is very high wattage for what you have here, I think that you would need a 550w power supply max.
I suspect that these are the specs of a prebuilt computer and I would like to persuade you to build the computer yourself rather than buy prebuilt: it is more value for money, safer and faster computer speeds when you build your own.
Give us a budget, a currency and what you will be using the PC for and we will design a great system for you.

Bulllets wrote I'd shoot for an FX 9590 for the cpu and the gpu you could go anything in the R9 series and it'd perform well."Anything in the R9 series" is pretty vague. 270 won't be playable at 4k but 290x will. Stop suggesting the 9590, seriously.
