seems good to me. If you want wifi get a pcie wireless card

That cpu will throttle the 280 pretty badly, I'd switch it out for an i3

[PC owner with questions]

I have that card I play everything on high/ultra (at1080p). And it is a quad core so you are good (CPU)

That was what I was thinking, what about a fx6300?

it should be fine for 9/10 games.

I hope you're not an Arma player...

It's not the amount of cores that's the issue, it's that AMD's per core performance isn't that good. You should be fine, but an i3 should game a lot better than both.

i wouldn't get that case. it's a piece of junk. get the corsair 200r instead, which is at the same price point.

 

edit: i'm referring to the nzxt case you have chosen

what's your budget again? i've seen you post about this before.

@ismokebudz

 

what about this?

 

the i3 beats your amd cpu and the 380 is superior, but still close, to the 280
