New CPU and a build suggestion?

[Exceef]

I need suggestions for a CPU under $250 (U.S dollars) for a first time build that I'm doing.

Btw can anyone suggest a first time build while your at it.(Budget is $750 without other Peripherals)

Buy an FX-6300 and your other parts cheaping out with some parts like the case and MoBo and however much money you have left find the best GPU you can find for the price range because the GPU is where you should spend the most money on
