-Any different brand of the R9 380?

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

Sorry About the Motherboard,Already changed it..Sure I'll change the PSU..FOr the 380..MSI maybe

well the motherboard means that you'd HAVE to go with the 4460, but you could go with a B150 motherboard and the 6500 instead. as you can't overclock the 4460, which is basically the point of the Z series boards.

 

oh and MSI is much much better for AMD GPUs like the 380.

An ASRock H97 Anniversary or ASUS H97 Plus?

Even PCPP can't save your poor soul.  Hm, I think the 4460/z97 and 380 might be your best bet.   The 4460 is the best low end i5 for gaming.

This is gonna be probably my build..It's less than 800$ dollars in America but In my country it would be a lot more expensive cause tax..
