Well, within the next few months i will be getting these parts. Im not that much of an expert on picking out the best parts, but i would like to see if this setup will work fine.

If you don't have the money now and you won't have it for a few months, why are you asking for the advice NOW?

Well, you didn't list a budget nor the main purpose of the PC. Either way, an FX 6100 and a low end GPU is terrible considering an i3-2100 + MSI Z77 G43 is in the same price range and a lot better. There are better units than that specific Antec like the [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] . That particular CM case looks quite horrible ( not painted on the inside with no tool-less features or cable management ) - you could grab a NZXT Source 210 / Antec One / PM'd HAF 912 which are much better cases and have improved airflow.

Well thank you Generation for giving me some suggestions. Im sorry i didnt list the purpose of my build and budget. I have a budget of $500, but it can reach $550 or $600. Im going to use it for gaming mainly for skyrim, BF3 and diablo. Settings dont really matter for me though. It doesnt need to be super realistic, i just really need decent fps and Mid or high resolution.

I suggest you don't consider this as of right now because of how fast technology is advancing. I suggest you wait for the time when you have your money and are ready to consider getting it because prices drop when new tech is out.
