The APU would handle moderate 1080, especially with faster ram (2400mhz) 

You could add an SSD if you wanted

because i was in a hurry and i completely forgot to look for higher speed memory

[GodSpoon]

Then slow down and don't recommend him a computer that can't perform like it is supposed to 

And that A8 is more expensive than the 5800k and performs worse in single threaded performance and just as well for gaming m8 

Cmon now

Well I say its his choice then if he wanted to swap it out for a better case/psu combo then he can 

I went for the best performance he can get for his budget
