The most important thing is that i will not overclock. I would be playing next gen games bf4,watchdogs etc. at 1080p high detail with a bit of AA(don't care if it's ultra or high/very high).
I will be keeping cpu for the next 2-3 years.
I have been reading about fx6300 with 670/760 but most of them are with OC.

Overall that should be a fairly well balanced system. You might be CPU limited somewhat in a few very CPU intensive games, but overall, as others said you should be fine. I mean you will be limited by either the gpu or CPU in every game anyway.

That said, seems a shame to not overclock a bit to around 4 ghz. That should be fairly easy to do without increasing power consumption too much.

Well if i oc i would be needing better motherboard + aftermarket cooler+termal paste.I would rather buy fx8320 than oc fx6300,but since i'm on budget going just wanted to know if there would be any problems with stock 6300 paired with gtx760.Some forums say yes some not it's really hard to decide.

I think it should be a nice system on a budget. You should get playable framerates in just about any game. Do you live near a Microcenter? They have outstanding cpu/mb combo deals. I havent checked recently, but at one time they had an FX6300/mb combo for only 125.00 or something like that.
