Hey i recently decided to buy myself a gaming computer instead of gaming on my laptop, and i was hoping i could get some help in here.
Budget - Around 1000 dollars/7500 DKK(Danish kroner)
Resolution - 1080P
Games / Settings Desired - BF3/4 (Also Ultra-ish), LoL (Ultra), Far Cry 3 (Ultra-ish)
Any other intensive software or special things you do (Frequent video encoding, 3D modeling, etc) - Nope
Country - Denmark
Parts that can be reused - Nothing, never had a desktop PC before.
Do you need an OS? - No
Do you need peripherals (e.g. monitor, mouse, keyboard, speakers, etc)? Yes, but il find that out for myself, its not included in the budget.
I was thinking of going with an AMD FX 8350 since its cheaper than the Intel I5, its not the same performance i know, but in the gaming benchmarks ive been seeing its only about 1-5 FPS drop from the Intel.
I am hoping to OC this build

Am i missing anything in this build, and is there some modifications i can make to make it more futureproof.
The 760 GFX card is only there since i can't afford a better one for some months, but il be buying a better one once i get more cash
