Hi there!

 

So I was messing with Newegg and decided to make an AMD Build. I'm on a $750 budget. And if ever this comes to fruition, I will buy all the parts from 

Newegg, or any place where the said part is cheaper.

 

If you want to know what I will be using this build for (if ever i build this): Moderate gaming and editing, minor rendering (very rare).

Supposed specs:

CPU: AMD A10 7850k

CPU Cooler: CM Hyper T4

Mobo: MSI A58M-E33

SSD: Crucial MX100 128GB

HDD: WD Blue 1TB

RAM: G.Skill Ares 8GB (2x4GB, DDR3-1866)

GPU: Gigabyte Radeon R9 270x

PSU: Seasonic SSR-650RM

Total in Newegg as of Dec 10, 2014 - $739.91

 

Feel free to suggest!

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 | http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861
