budget gaming pc ($700) is my power supply enough?

I would recommended the i3-4150 though.

The 4330 only steps up the HD Graphics from 4400 to 4600. And you are using a GPU.

Save some money.

@connorpiper do you think it will bottleneck my gpu?

 

No, both CPUs will do fine. They are basically the same, only the 4330 has a better internal GPU. But you won't be using that because you have a 280X.

I would get this instead. 4 gigs of memory is not enough to cut it.

@connorpiper one more thing do you think i will be able to run ac unity at all?

 

I have no idea what that is. I'm guessing a game. (I stick to a select few games)

Hopefully someone else knows. Or you can check with Google.

Nah, not as good.

 

Same CPU. 2 cores 2 threads. 3.5GHz. But with Intel HD 4400 instead of 4600. (And a little more cache for the extra GPU power)

No reason to spend the money.
