Need a computer that can run Sims and do some photo editing for somebody else.

 

Not sure what to use for a CPU or a video card. 

 

Requirements: 

Budget $600 

 

Found these, didn't know if built could be better. 

 


 


 

Right now, have $710 build, but this includes Windows 8

that apu can run battlefield 4 good enough to play on 1080p and im pretty sure can run sim pretty freaking well. i forgot to edit the ram part but better and faster ram can increase the performance of apu. get 2133mhz ram and get 16gb of them from they money you save from buying 270x

@Zackfoo Almost said get faster memory. But all in all get a BeQuiet! Pure Rock for the CPU cooler, it's cheaper and better. And go with a power supply from EVGA Eather G1 or G2 and GS series, you'll see this in the name when on pcpartpicker or a PSU from SeasSonic. The Corsair CX series aren't really great PSUs.

I'm sorry but apu for 600 dollars is awful. i3 and r9 270/280 will be so much better and will only mean downgrades in ram and case. I know sims will run fine on apu but srsly that's just awful price to performance

i3 4170 : Asus R9 270 : MSI h81M-Pro VD : Cooler Master Hyper TX3 EVO : Seagate Barracuda 1TB : NZXT Source 210 : Some Random RAM
