This will be my first time buying parts and was wondering if this build would be good for gaming! So please give me feed back! :)

The 4130 is a crappy CPU. Get a X3XX model. Preferably an FX 6300, given that they aren't too expensive. Get atleaast an ASUS M5A99X motherboard for it.

You can find a 7870 GPU for $200. Get that instead of the 7850. Honestly, you can find a 7950 for just $30 more than THAT. Kind of makes me lean toward suggesting the 7950.

Yep I paid $174 for my 7950 after the $30 MIR, but it jumped two days after I bought it to over $300 last I saw it was down to $269 but there are other brands close to $200 and I would bet they will come down again.
