AMD or Intel build!?

[Abel225]

This is the AMD build i put together. Although I don't know what motherboard to choose. It should be around 80 dollars! It has an ssd witch is quite nice!!

The intel build is a very well rounded build I think.

Mostly gaming and a bit a cad program using. And video editing for the heck of it but not too often.

AMD isn't a bad contender at all, intel just scores higher in the benchmarks. so if you are on a budget then you should consider AMD, but if your just throwing your money at it because you can then intel typically is the common choice. hope this helps.

I'd say AMD, but there are pros and cons for both. What it comes down to is the SSD. Also, I recommend Corsair 200r/SPEC-01 instead of the n400, it's not a very good case.

I'm on a budget that can't be extended. So if it exceeds 780 dollars I have to make a cut!

a tip, if you are going to cut anything cut your budget on your ram. it doesn't truly matter if it's all flashy what matters is the speed of it. if you aren't going to have a window in your case then you don't really need to spend the extra money.

I don't live in the US. This is one of the cheapest ram you can get here.

And also guys! What MOBO is good for amd for around 80 dollars?

[Warthoger89]

I live in Canada, so it is more expensive here.

i'd go with an Asus Motherboard. they just seem to have more bang for your buck.

Would this: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-motherboard-m5a97r20 be any good?? It has a good price here in Hungary.

it's a great board if you don't plan on purchasing 2 cards and putting them in SLI.
