This is from a youtube video just wanna get a second opinion on if the parts are good ?

Case: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] BitFenix Comrade Midi-Tower
HDD: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] 1TB Seagate Barracuda
DVDRW: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] LiteOn 24x
CPU: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] AMD (Piledriver) FX-6300 3.50GHz
MEMORY: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] 8GB (2x4GB) Crucial Ballistix Sport
GFX: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] Sapphire Radeon R9 270X
MOBO: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3P
PSU: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] EVGA 500W 80 Plus Power Supply

Think the recommended PSU is 600W for the GPU so that may have to be changed but other than that i don't know.

sorry about links , looking about 500 pound. For the computer, cause getting rid of xbox and putting it with some money i've saved. I prob play the mainstream stuff like BF4, maybe DayZ. Then my friends keep trying to make me play WoW. Cause the new expansion is coming out or something

Assuming you're US, this build would come to just under $600. With $600, you could get this;

Overclock the G3258 to take full advantage of it and it will out-perform the FX-6300. R9 280 bets 270X obviously and you can OC the 280 for even more power. That build has a better case and PSU. As well as the added benefit of an SSD.

A couple of options, if you want quicker boot times, get this one

Or if you want more overclocking potential, get this one.

Either one are better than the one that you provided

Oops, still too early for me apparently
With £500, I'd look at something like this;

overclock the Pentium and get some poontang.

Xiggy and DCFC's suggestions are both solid builds though.
