New Gaming PC Build

[glghon]

Hi guys,

Just a quick question,  im building my first gaming pc.  The graphics card im geting

is the Sapphire Radeon VAPOR-X R9 290 4GB GDDR5. I was planning on getting

the AMD 8350 and the MSI ATX 970 MOB.

 

I just wanted some opinions on this processor and MOB paired with that GPU.

You guys think its ok or would i run into some sort of bottlenecking issues and should get

the AMD 9590?

 

THX!

Definitely do not get the 9590. At that price, you might as well get an Intel i5-4690k.

I would recommend a graphics card, but can't unless I know what will this be used for.

What's your budget and currency? What peripherals do you need?

Because yes that would bottleneck it and the 9590 wouldn't be different.

Don't get an AMD processor, get an i5 or i7.

my budget is about $1,500.

Sapphire Radeon VAPOR-X R9 290 4GB GDDR5, corsair vengeance pro 16gb, corsair cx series 750 watt,

still trying to decide on the processor and MOB. 

 

what do you guys think of an MSI G45 Motherboard with an i5 - 4690k?
