Firstly i don't want to build a PC as i have done before and would rather pay to have someone fit it so lets continue ...
i am looking at an AMD build but not sure if its any good and what games it will run and with what fps and setting level(ultra or low etc..)
Here are the specs to one PC i am looking at: Processor:
AMD Bulldozer FX-8 Eight Core 8320 Processor
Memory: 16GB DDR3 1600Mhz Memory
Harddrive: 2TB SATA Hard Drive
Harddrive: 120GB Solid State Drive
Graphics: Radeon R9 270X
Case: Novatech ATX Gaming Case
Optical Drives: 22x DVD Writer
Power Supply: Novatech PowerStation 600W Non Modular PSU
Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-970A-DS3P

so can you please let me know if this build will be good for what games etc.

Thanks

-Dead socket CPU
-16GB of ram for gaming - Unnecessary
-Probably a shitty SSD
-DVD drives are so 1990's
-R9 270x is a decent card, but I've got a feeling your paying quite a lot for the build so..
Whats your budget and currency

Get another 4GB of ram when you can.

Grab an SSD when you can.

In the future add another GTX 970 and sli em.

Building a PC is very easy,
