I am looking for the best AMD gaming pc that will handle 16 GB of RAM

[RedstoneUFO]

I love AMD. I have an older laptop with AMD that runs better than my new laptop with Intel. I am hunting for a good desktop PC now. One that is cheap and will run 16 GB about average. I am wanting to take full advantage on all the PC resources.

Thanks,

[RedstoneUFO]

I prefer AMD CPU. I don't rly have a favorite GPU.

[Tim Drake]

Clearly you have no idea about hardware.

[Mohenjo]

much fanboy, yes

i think being a fanboy is ok. i mean its fine to like one company more than the other

Max budget is 700 minus any type of storage

Grab one on the A88X platform.  The A10-7870k is the latest CPU.

 

Although your emphasis on RAM is way over rated.

Max budget is 700 minus any type of storage

Some cores are stronger than others. Intel's cores are stronger than the fx series

what r u trying to say?

Max budget is 700 minus any type of storage

with this budget, you can do a nice overclockable I5.

 

i know AMD makes good budget chips, but for gaming specifically single-core performance is more important than core count.

 

and every individual cpu is different, it is called the silicon lottery. sometimes you win and get an awesome chip that will OC to awesome speeds, sometimes you dont

Lmao, you are saying it's because of your AMD cpu it runs "better"?

 

Ironic.

im about $70 over budget, but this is the best you are going to get.

 

and having had boh this and the AMD fx 8320, this is much better for gaming.

"good amd laptop" 

Well there are quite a few. Believe it or not, it's much better to get an APU + AMD GPU in a laptop, you will get more performance than an Intel CPU and Intel HD or low end Nvidia card. On the low-mid range laptops, this makes a lot of sense. Trust me, I've seen and used quite a few and this is coming from someone that hasn't owned an AMD CPU since the Phenom II days in 2009.
