Hey guys,

 

My sister's birthday is almost there, and with all the money she wanted to buy a pc, but since I need to build it, I also need to choose the parts

 

I have a decent amount of experience with Intel builds, but not really with AMD. This is the list of components that I think is good enough for her:

 

- AMD A8-7600 APU

- MSI A78M-E45 Mobo

- Seagate 1 TB HDD

- Sharkoon VG4-W Blue case 

- Kingston HyperX Fury 4GB Ram

- Be quiet system power 7 350W PSU

- Samsung ODD

 

What do you think of this?

 

I will probably add an ssd later on. And is that psu good enough to add a simple gpu?

 

Also which gpu is the best for that APU to crossfire it with?

 

Thanks in advance!

What will he do with the pc? Gaming or just web?

Btw 450W on the psu is what i would get with this config

 

Probably just for web and school at first, maybe some gaming later when she gets a better gpu. But I will look for the 450w. Thanks!

This is what i could come up with,

 

http://de.pcpartpicker.com/p/mcM4Jx

 

Should do fine and has options for a GPU (e.g 750 TI) later on.

 

of course this is German so prices will differ with the different stores in Holland

 

so you can always edit if you have to keep within budget.

 

btw, i have No ideas about which Component shops there are in Holland.

Also to answer your question, that PSU will not be sufficient for a decent mid-range GPU.

 

I recommend a 500w PSU (e.g from EVGA or Corsair)

 

There is nothing wrong with that case, but i feel you can do alot better.

And make sure that you get extra fans to help with cooling.

some cases only come with one exhaust fan....

tweakers.nl for best dutch prices.

 

Thanks for the help and yes I know tweakers.net

For the other parts it's not a problem for me. It's just that I'm not that familiar with AMD
