Hi yall, I'm looking to build my first pc, I don't need you guys to pick out the parts as I already know what I need. I need a cheap CPU for shit load amount of photo editing, and I like to sketch anime and cartoon, or mmo characters. Could you guys recommend me a software for sketching anime/cartoons? I have a bamboo graphic tablet btw. The games I play only are LoL, Maplestory, CS:GO, Dragon Ball Xenoverse and I mostly only watch videos or type up essays. My choices unfortunately are only 860K or G3258. Don't ask, i'm only 13 and I only get 30 bucks a month. I mostly game on PS4, so most of the games I run on my PC run on a potato.

The 860 is the way to go since you probably won't be able to upgrade. And you can benefit from the four cores of the steamroller base since your probably editing. Could you possibly get a FX 6300 instead?

I play PS4 with friends. Well I can only afford the cpu. The rest parents are paying for... and it isn't a high budget.

It doesn't have to be a high budget, just tell us the budget so we can suggest builds.
