Better go with Core i3 2100 + Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H @ (6.8K + 4.5K)= 11.3K which offer better performance in gaming than FX 4100. For Ram, get G-Skill RipjawX 1600 MHz 4GB X 1 DDR3 @ 1.5K.
And one thing, you already having the HDDs or you wanna buy?

powercolor is the cheapest hd 6570 you will find followed by sapphire
you can choose it according to your budget and cooling capacity etc
880gm does support 1600mhz ram although phenom 2 wont be able to handle it because its memory controller can only handle ddr3 1333mhz
the amd rig is futureproof because the piledriver cpus will also use the am3+socket
although the lga 1155 will not be used for the haswell processors
good luck !

^^ That is a good config and OP can go with it.

@panwala95 , for your information, the integrated memory controller of a Proessor is 1333 MHz does not mean that it can use higher frequency Rams. You will be surprised to know that even Sandy Bridge Memory controllers, including the Unlocked K processors, work at 1333 MHz Speed. If your motherboard does have support in BIOS for using higher memory then you can use. In case of Phenom II, you just need to increase the Ram multiplier to 4 to make the Ram operates at 1600 MHz.
In case of Intel Z68/Z77 or P67, the Motherboard can read the Intel XMP profile of the memory and automatically shedules it to run at 800 MHz DDR speed or effective 1600 MHz speed.
