So yes i've changed my budget again
$550 USD is the budget.
I'm looking at getting the fx 6300 and 750ti
I'm thinking of this instead of the x4 and 950
Now I think the 6300 will be better for my needs, I will stream a decent amount as well as do some video editing and the extra 2 cores will most likely help and do better than the x4.
Now before you say the x4 and 950 will get better gaming performance because of the upgraded card, I will really only play like mine craft and if I play new end games I don't mind playing at low to medium settings at 1080p which the 750ti is very capable of.
If you guys can recommend any setup that's better that will suit my streaming editing and light gaming needs feel free to drop me a part list
Is my decision correct to go with the 6300 and 750ti over x4 and 950 with my needs thanks <3

Sanctorum wrote FX-6300 and GTX 750Ti is a very poor choice. If you must get more than a quad core;

SLI support so you can easily add a 2nd 950 at any point. Nice cooler so you can OC the 8320E.
Okay. Just one question why is it such a poor choice for my needs. There's really no need for a 950 with my needs. Mince craft will run 60+ fps while recording on a 6300 and that's really all I need to play + a little streaming + recording. If I end up with this rig is this case easy to manage it seems like one of those gay led cases that are cheap and people put them because it's blue (Ik you would not do that though)

Think I'm settling with this. All I changed was the 950 from the 750ti added an easy to work in and upgradable case. And a semi modular PSU for easier cable management. + when I stream it won't be PC games it will be Xbox so the GPU doesn't need to be too amazing

The GPU can help with editing and streaming. It's not worth getting a 750Ti, at all. It's a poor choice for it's price. The GTX 950 is a considerable upgrade and means you have the performance if you need it. The Tesseract is a good budget ATX case, simple as that really. You're looking at $40+($50+ with window) for a case with similar build quality. I wouldn't be using the stock case fans, so I wouldn't be removing those. I also wouldn't be spending twice as much on the PSU. Oh, and spend the extra $7 for the Cryorig cooler, its better, and nicer.
If you want a gold rated PSU;

The Tesseract has decent space for cable management behind the motherboard tray.

Thanks for the feedback after all I'm not not going to take it into consideration as I asked for it but I think I'm for sure sticking with the define s and seasonic 550w and 8320e. I'll wait till around Black Friday or so to buy the GPU of the 950 goes on sale around $120- $130 or the 750ti goes even lower to sub $100 then I'll just pick it up.
I really appreciate your help I'm not blowing you off at all just want the define s because want to upgrade prob in like a year or a year and a half to a 4690k and water cool it or a skylake i5 and water cool it
Thx bro <3

Stop wanting the 750Ti
It isn't worth the money
The 950 is by far a much better card for a bit more. In a few years where even games such as minecraft with mods will need a somewhat decent GPU the 750Ti won't suffice, better to spend a bit more once than a bit less once and then have to upgrade.

^^ already went over this bro. I told him the deal and if you think I'm going to have a 750ti in a few years then again u didn't read the other comments. Within a year I'm probobly going going to get something like a 970 so if the 750ti ends up going on sale sub 100 then I'll pick it up.

Lemme just add this before you go buying into all this.
The 6300 is not a great CPU by any means, it's a little sluggish when you put it to the test, like in rendering and streaming. It may have 6 cores, but those 6 cores are weak, very weak. An i3 would be a wiser choice. Skylake i3's are around the same price and offer Hyperthreading also it has a better upgrade path. 4 Skylake threads will be better than 6 Vishera cores, guaranteed.
Also, the 750Ti is a very unwise choice, even if you do plan on getting rid in a couple of years. The 750Ti struggles in games now, so god only knows what it will be like in a years time when games are even more demanding. The 950 is the better choice.

This.
My 6300 sucks at single core benchmarks etc even at 4.5GHz, heck back when Craig had a G3258 it was beating mine in single core tasks...
As for the GPU, get a 950 and instead of waiting a year for a 970/390, wait a little longer to get even better cards.
The 750Ti was ok when it came out but that was nearly 2 years ago..
