Well its me again guys. Today i was planning to order my stuff for my first build after asking you guys, turns out the prices went up, and now its out of budget. So i was wondering whats the best budget CPU that is unlocked as well. If its AMD, i was wondering if you guys can also recommend me a motherboard that can handle it being over clocked to 4.5 Ghz or more. My cousin gave me his H100i, and a 750w PSU. I'll be doing mainly photo editing, with photo shop, and light room for year book editing.

A good A88X board + a 860K, or if you can spend more and don't mind a dying platform then a good AM3+ board and an FX 6300 or 8350.

 

Normally G3258 would be suggested, but photoshop and lightroom can actually use lots of cores.
