Hello guys, I was wondering if you could help me to build a PC for gaming, for around 800$ USD, I would like the best performance output, I will only play in 1080p since the monitors in my country with a higher resolution than that are REALLY expensive hahaha.

 

PS: The build doesn't have to include a case, I already have an NZXT H440. Don't care about the colours either.

Well.. I meant AMD (CPU and GPU) sorry for confusing guys.. And the prices should be in the US

AMD CPUs are awful at that price point.

In some countries (hello) an i5 4460 costs double what a FX 8350 costs

CPU wise, intel outperforms AMD in all price brackets, so you should definitely stich to intel there. 

Unless he's in a country like mine where intel costs double over AMD

It bottlenecks anything greater than a 950 if im not wrong (Did read it somewhere but cant find reference so u'll have to trust my word)

Planning on trying StarCitizen (Highly recommended)? STAR-NR5P-CJFR is my referal link

I will buy in the US but, I thought  the price/performance wasn't gonna be such a long distance between intel and AMD. Looks like I was wrong.. so you guys are suggesting me to stick to an intel's build? Sorry for my english 

Yes. Go for an i5-4460 or something.
