Here's my build. Easily upgradeable, Single DIMM of 4GB to start with but you can add another 3 more if this isn't enough RAM for you. CPU is very basic for now but easily upgradeable when you need more processing power. Given you 1TB of Storage rather than the 160GB which are in the other systems, though this could be swapped for a smaller HDD and an SSD if you'd like to boot your OS from an SSD. Added a decent aftermarket cooler and a case fan so you should be able to overclock a little, though you may need to add more fans or find another way of cooling the system if you'd like to overclock in larger amounts.
Hope you like my build idea,
Star.

I know next to nothing about AMD motherboard chipsets, but I took my best guess as to picking out a good overclocking board.
Honestly this build could be a LOT better for gaming if you didn't want to overclock.

very nice job! surprising that it fit under $300 with over head for a ssd boot drive!

...Where are you finding a $12 SSD?
Honestly, for $300, you can't do much better than this for a Minecraft machine (or any gaming machine for that matter):
