My Christmas PC Build (Budget Based) roughly $550

I already have a case, CD drive and Fan. (No SSD cannot afford ATM) The build consists of:

  • EVGA SC Geforce GTX 660
  • AMD Phenom II X4 Black Edition Deneb 965 3.4 ghz
  • Kingston HyperX 8 gb memory (DDR3) (2x4gb)
  • (BOTTLENECK???):WD caviar black 250 gb 7200 RPM Spindle Drive(HD)
  • SIlverstone Strider 600w single 12v rail PSU
  • ASRock N68C-GS FX AM3+ NVIDIA GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a Micro ATX AMD Motherboard
