I already bought all my parts which cpu would be a better value within a 60 to 80 dollar range with the fm2 socket as I don't want to get a new motherboard and if you suggest a CPU would i be able to play most games on at least low settings?

Having a gpu for playing games is EXTREMELY helpful. If you can't get a gpu then the A-10 series of APU's from AMD is pretty good but those are out of your price range. I don't have any experience with other APU's but apart from that if u get a non APU cpu your not gonna really be able to play games ( unless it's like minecraft or something non intensive) of the integrated gpu.

 If you are asking for an APU/CPU suggestion going up 60 to 80 dollars, then the A10 5800k @100.00 or the A10 6800K @ 125.00.  If going those amounts lower....not sure. Ahh...saw the "value" portion in your post. Would have to agree with Feronix on the 760K, but then you have to add in GPU.

The Athlon 760k is a proper value CPU that fits the AM2 socket, but it has no integrated graphics and you'll need a GPU to go with it.
