The site is a swiss site for pc parts and i would like only to buy from over there because it's easier with the warranty, and i might add later to a graphique card 
 
Thanks a lot in advance !!!!

so it's an APU Build, for like a living room silent Gaming PC or something, other wise, and even though APUs are very good value, i suggest a CPU and a dedicated GPU if you're serious about taking your gaming experience to the next level

Yeah i find that a APu build is a better bang for the buck at this price range, i won't game a lot on it, but if i do i will add a CPU because this motherboard had a pci x16 solt

 

and thanks for replying soo fast !!

if you get more serious about Gaming throw in a Graphics card, because even if you have an APU in already but you're only using it's processing cores, it's cool .

Nah, but its ok, the Rig looks solid but not more, for an APU build its nice, but for serious Gaming maybe overthink that APU thing :)

don't ask us when it comes down to looks, that's when your own touch comes in, what appeals to you

if you use a APU i suggest 2133 MHZ ram because the GPU uses the same ram.... I just built my gf a APU rig and  had 1600 ram and thought it would suffice till I switched over to 2133 and it made a enormous difference.

Nice tip ;), vey true, slipped my mind

very good one, it falls between a 260X and a 270, go for it, but don't expect 60FPS at 1080p maxed out settings ;)
