Cheers,

Ajax

I'm sorry?

 

ASrock Z97 anniversary... ok...

R9 280... ok...

 

 

...G3258... umm...

 

Go with an i5 4460 or 4690K, unless you can't afford it, you can upgrade later. Not saying the G3258 is a bad CPU, but it doesn't fit with your build (might be some bottlenecking, correct me if I'm wrong though)

hi, my currency is Australian dollars and in Australia...  and I'm pretty sure that the CPU won't bottle neck the GPU, and brah, jus coz the pentium is dual core doesn't mean that tit doesn't pack a punch, theres basically no difference between the i3 and the pentium

 

I'm sorry?

 

ASrock Z97 anniversary... ok...

R9 280... ok...

 

 

...G3258... umm...
