super budget pc help

[snowfany]

hey right now i dont know which way to go i have very limited cash for building but it does not mean i will

just go for all the cheap stuff ... i want to have the best out of my money   

 

BUDGET 650-670$

 

cpu : i3 4160/4170

board: asus h97me                      https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/H97ME/

 

ram:  any 1x8gig of ram 1600mhz

hdd :  seagate 1tb 7200rpm 3.5

videocard : asus strix gtx960 4gb

psu:  aerocool vp pro   500w

case: any 40$-45$ case

 

or 

          cpu amd fx-6300     (same price as i3 above)

          board: asrock 970 extreme 4       http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/970%20Extreme4/

           or

          board: msi 970       http://us.msi.com/product/mb/970-GAMING.html#hero-overview

 

anyboard board that can make my build cheaper will help me

as long as it can be expanded to 32gb ram in the future

 

 

so  yeah idk which will give me the best performance for my budget

also if 500w will be enought for the amd build

 

they also told me i3 has better cpu and most games before and till now  uses only 1-2 cpu so i3 would be better for gaming

 

but also some people told me that future games will require the use of more cores

and thats where amd will shine

 

so here i am with my money stuck with it and i cant decide so i need help

Yes, but how would you use 32GB? Even I don't use 32GB And I constantly render 4D Animations and make 4k + 8K Graphics.

as long as it can be expanded to 32gb ram in the future, this kind of suggests you plan to upgrade it in the future, and I'm simply asking what would you need 32GB of ram for.
