Pretty damn good for $600.
So I'm throwing together a cheap secondary build, and this is what I've got so far:
Mobo: Asus M5A97
Processor: AMD FX-6300
VC: Asus GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8GB( 2x4GB)1600 mHZ
PSU: SeaSonic S12II 520W
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 500GB
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit
Case: NZXT Tempest 410
Keep in mind that this is simply a cheap build I need.
I think I've got a pretty damn good setup for the price range, which is $600.

Haha, that's better than the majority of a lot of builds :L
Upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate, bumped the HDD to 1TB, and switched to a Tempest 410 Elite case rather than a standard 410.
Also decided to add more cooling with a CM Hyper 212 Evo. Only went $10 over budget in all.

That's crazy for $600. Would be a decent pickup.

GET THE 8350 DAMNIT.
In this price range it's a very good build... The FX-Series might not be the best for gaming, but they are damm cheap

Certainly true... I'm also getting great performance out of my FX-8350. If you compare the 8350 to the other (Intel) chips within the same price range, it will for sure own them all. It also offers you great multitasking performance.
The mistake AMD made was that they priced themselves out of the market during the launch of the bulldozer series. They didn't deliver enough gaming performance when you compared them to for instance the I5/I7 even though they were priced quite expensive those days. But now it's all fine to get an AMD, Cheap CPU's with a lot of performance for it's price... Still, if you're looking for a very high-end gaming platform and you don't care about your wallet you could buy the I7
