just to add another option if you haven't yet ordered, you could go with a xeon build. It's essentially that CPU, but there's no integrated graphics so it's cheaper, and you could use it with a cheap b85 motherboard. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/hrtLdC Try finding that cpu and a compatible...

+1 to what sasrt8 said. That's why I haven't upgraded from my 8350 yet.

Those cards are pretty low end, unless you're just looking to play League or something i'd reconsider.

I know its already been resolved and this may not be the problem but when booting from USB make sure your drive IS NOT in a use 3.0 slot :)

Well those settings will be reverted to however the bios comes stock on the new motherboard. I'm not sure if you'd have any sort of data loss, but a format would be worst case scenario. I wouldn't stress about it too much, just back up anything important beforehand.

everything I linked is compatible so long as everything on your end works with it aswell. Power supply, case (gpu length may be a problem) etc.

Games like battlefield that actually utilize all the cores run great on AMD, but 95% of games that are out now will run better with fewer, more powerful cores. DX12 is supposed to take much better advantage of multi-core CPU's, but who knows how long it will be before games actually come out...

if you're willing to go a bit above $600, this would be as good as it gets. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/zkQLbv You could probably get a little bit cheaper mobo, but it might require flashing the bios.

using a power supply calculator, that supply seems like it's sufficient. Did you notice this problem happening from day one after you got the card, or after installing a certain driver? I'd try removing your current drivers and starting with a clean installation and see if that helps. I saw...

Pretty much what everyone else said, build your own desktop. It's not nearly as complicated as you'd think.

$50 isn't really cheap. That's like death adder pricing. http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Hyperion-Gaming-Fusion-910-004069/dp/B00LZVNWIA/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1433375072&sr=8-3&keywords=logitech+g302 That's a great mouse, although you really can find a decent mouse for $20 if you look around.

Anyone could vouch for the hyper 212 evo cooler. Under your budget too. As for the case I'd just say get something that has intake filters for the PSU and front, otherwise dust will build up relatively quick. The NZXT S340 is somewhere around that price range, looks good, has everything you...

you don't need any specific size, so long as they're for pc. And usually they come in huge packs, like 50-100 for around 5 bucks. http://www.amazon.com/Estone-Toothed-Computer-Motherboard-Mounting/dp/B00G4QYJHE/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1432874561&sr=8-3&keywords=pc+mounting+screws free shipping...

when you get a blue screen, it'll give you a code of number or whatever and write it down and google what the problem is. Or go into device manager and try uninstalling your display drivers for that card and try the process again.

I'd advise against McAfee. Always scan with Malwarebytes, it's great. As for protection, just use Avast tbh. http://www.av-test.org/en/antivirus/home-windows/ Also, there's websites you can get just about any subscription a lot cheaper if you really feel the need to pay for one.
