I think that's about the best you can do for the price. Good job!

i have to agree with you, maybe fill the price difference with another 4gb ram

Nah. I am sure someone will come out and start telling me that there are better things

[itachipirate]

Nah. I am sure someone will come out and start telling me that there are better things

An R9 270 would do a lot better, but it's like $20-$40 more than the 750ti

[Guest]

Nah. I am sure someone will come out and start telling me that there are better things

You bet your ass someone will.

The R7 370 is better than the gtx 750ti for (almost) the same price.

you can even OC with that mobo.

 

Best thing you can do is get some more RAM later on. The 270X will be faster then the 750Ti and the Athlon barely beats the G3258 in newer games

[Prysin]

Can you overclock with the H81 boards?  A G3258's strength comes from being a overclocking beast

yes poorly, if at all. Probably can change the core clock a little bit, but you wont get much access to anything else. Stock for Stock the G3258 loses to Athlon. Get the G3258 up to 4.5 to 4,8GHz and its another story

I already did

 

Also, that 7850k build will be able to get 30FPS @ 1080p in most modern games if it was made correctly. But it isnt.... ive built a couple of 7850k builds myself. They are fantastic for low end systems. Have to set settings to low in games like GTA 5 and BF4 though. Its a cool little thing. a CPU with a beastly onboard GPU. However APU is a 330 USD budget solution, you got 400 USD, thus Athlon + 270X is better

[vSyNd1c4t3]

LOL .... no GPU?

 

Nope, don't need one. Will run those games just fine.

 

and just for fun, here is the Intel version.

This list is actually really great ^^^ 270x much better than 750ti, CPU arguably better than the pentium, RAM better in every way... PSU better. This is great, amazing that it's under $400

if i were to stick with a 270X, i cannot get it below 450 USD before rebates.

with 270 (little better then 750Ti) - i can get it down to 430 USD befort rebates.

With a 265 (hardly better then 750Ti) i can get below 400 USD without rebates.... But with 265, you might aswell get a 750TI and OC the snot out of it instead.

[MrSpeed]
