What is the best build for 600 euros?

[FreakyNinjaNL]

Hi, im planning on hopefully building a 600 EURO pc soon. Now my question is how i can get the best gaming performance out of 600 euros? I want an AMD based build because a lot of people told me that amd is the way to go for lower priced builds. I dont know if its really possible but a SSD would be great.

 

Thanks

If it is meant for gaming, even with less   than  600usd, no amd would not be a wise choice

Miles better in single core performance compared to AMD, which the majority of game benefit from.

yes and no

older games benefit more from high IPC, newer ones need more cores for better parrallell computing.

AMD FX is 45% behind haswell

A10/Athlon is 30% behind

If you oc the AMD chips to increase clock speed, you can get it further down, intel is still ahead but price wise, AMD can still keep up FPS wise so depending on how "big" of a GPU you are going to use, you may not need to flesh out on a big exspensive intel setup with a full fledged I5.

i3 + 290X or Athlon 860k + 960 will be the two best options as these will make room for a decent 120-250GB SSD for boot disk.
