Take it from me, DO NOT go mATX and FX. I cant to jack shit to my 6300, and I regret that decision everyday.
Are you talking about overclocking? I don't intend to over clock

Okay.
any thoughts on the Cpu + motherboard?
-
Any ram that could be recycled?
DDR2 is a little out of fashion these days
I'll just be buying the cheapest ram that is compatible
-
What stuff do you have from older builds?
Sandisk SSD, 2TB HDD - just a few small things...
to be fair, AMD doesn't have crap performance, its just sub-par to intel and nvidia (for now, waiting on zen processors and r9 390 to see how they perform against 980(ti..?) and current cpu's)
AMD's a good choice when limited by a extremely low budget (for a PC)
however, in this case, with about $250 for a cpu it would be better to go with an i5.
The FX8350 retails at around $200, whilst the cheapest I5 is around $240.

How much do you have to spend to spend on your PC?
Don't go AMD unless you want crap performance.
650$~(planning on recycling some stuff from previous builds)
-
Do you have any of the components already?
Is there any reason you're going for the FX 8350 over something like and Intel Core i5 4460 CPU?
Lesson nr. 1 of LTT, always check if there is a space at the end of the link.
If you're going for powerful and small, FX is not the way to go. Get something like an i5 that runs cooler and faster.
limited to a relatively small budget, and seeing as this will be my portable PC to use away from my main rig, I want it to be an AMD

Raid 0 Problems

Hi guys
Having some issues with my raid set up. I have 4 disks, 2 hard drives of which I store large files on and an SSD Raid 0 set up (set up on motherboard's raid options)
On one of the Hard drives I previously had windows 7 installed but was too lazy so I set up the SSD raid O on 2 x 120 gig SSDs and after some tweaking managed to get it running without the system booting me onto the hard drive with windows 7 on. However, I reset my boot options and for some reason cannot boot into the raid 0 set up again and keep getting directed onto the hard drive with windows 7
any help is appreciated
