PC parts I'm working toward

Hardware Hub Build a PC
1

Hi, I recently posted something about a starter pc and the people were very helpful. I decided to go a bit cheaper and here are the parts i'm going toward.

Case: Athena Power CA-GSB01DA Black 0.8mm SECC Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case - OEM

HDD: Seagate Barracuda ST500DM002 500GB 7200 RPM SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive

Motherboard: ASRock FM2A75M-DGS FM2 AMD A75 (Hudson D3) SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX AMD

Power: CORSAIR Builder Series CX500 500W ATX12V v2.3 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC

RAM: G.SKILL Ares Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900) Desktop Memory Model F3-1866C9D-8GAB

CPU/GPU: AMD A10-5800K Trinity 3.8GHz (4.2GHz Turbo) Socket FM2 100W Quad-Core Desktop APU (CPU + GPU) with DirectX 11 Graphic AMD radeon 7660D

I would get a sperate gpu but I don't have the money right now. Am I missing anything or should I start buying my stuff.

(this is about $390)

Avoid CX500's if you read the reviews they have a tendancy to shit out and I've heard about some frying other parts. Apart from that, good budget build, looks solid for the price.

The guy above me is right about the PSU.. :(

Get the Rosewill Stallion Series RD600. It's $55 and it's really good. Not 80+ certified but who cares, it works.

There are 4 versions of the CX500 btw. The 80+ bronze version (with 456W on the 12v rail) that's not been discontinued is fine.

I would invest in a SeaSonic G Series 550W modular 80+ Gold PSU; it is one of the few things you can carry over from build to build. It runs about $80, but can be found on sale.
