We need a budget. What is your budget?

[FireFox]

Possibly but I wouldn't go for a Pentium, if it was my money I'd stick with the Intel platform but I would at least have a Core i3

That's pretty nice also those CPU's might be getting a little old but I love those Phenom's (my favourite AMD), AMD went down hill in my eyes when Bulldozer was released.

Oh, Ooops. 425-450 ish.   http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1eXGO

 

Thats the APU build.

Can't you stetch to $500 because the system nightlitzzz has put together is pretty bloody sweet

But mine utterly crushes that build. It leaves it miles in the dust.

it does beat it,and I would recommend going with the phenom,but the A8 isn't a bad cpu

the part I think yours would kill the APU build at would be the graphics acceleration.

[Samuroot1987]

was still making that before i saw taht.

was still making that before i saw taht.

no offence a 400-450 build isnt that good your gona have to upgrade in 6 months or so

 

a console is a good price and gives a pretty close experience to high end pc gaming, but cheeper (when they are released)

 

if you want a good gaming pc you need at-least 600-800$

 

minimum.
