if you want to play arma games i recommend intel cpu's.

for open world games like ARMA you really want a SSD for that game, since it will reduce pop ins and make LOD load faster   (atleast in general in those kinds of games)

The second get FX series are just a hair under the i series so once you OC then there's pretty much no difference.

yes there is. you can oc how much you want for single threaded games intel wins at stock vs oc fx. even an i3 is better than the 8 core

You could always use Logical Increments. They have a tiered PC parts list for the Philippines. It's a good guide to help you get started. Change the parts as you see fit. For the Arma games, you might favor an unlocked CPU and Z87 motherboard, so that you can overclock an i5-4670K later on to get better performance. Could be useful in the future, too.

 

I won't give you a PCPartPicker build because they don't have a Filipino variant yet. But some parts you might want to consider:

 

• CPU: Intel i5-4670K (AMD FX-8350 would work if you overclock)
• CPU Cooler: Pretty much anything except the stock cooler
• Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z87X-D3H or MSI Z87-G55
• Video Card: GTX 770 or R9 280X; try to get EVGA, Asus, or MSI.
• Storage: 240-256 GB SSD and 2 TB hard drive (Crucial M500 and WD Green are a good combo)
• Power Supply: 600-750w, rated 80+ Bronze; try Seasonic, Corsair, XFX, Silverstone, or Antec.
• Case: BitFenix Shinobi, Corsair 300R, or NZXT Tempest 410

Rest is up to you.

which do you think is better? AMD Cards Or NVIDIA Cards? because im having a bit of trouble on picking

 

EDIT:The Motherboard u chose wasnt on the shop where im supposed to buy and i picked an Gigabyte GA-Z87-D3HP instead of a D3H

Neither is "better," it just depends on which game is optimized for which platform. In many benchmarks, the R9 280X reigns superior, and in some, the GTX 770 is better. Just get whatever is available to you for a better price.
