Yeah I know it is not a new thing or anything but i am really looking forward on doing it, first of all i will use, of course, for gaming and i would like to know if this specs are good enough to be able to play some recent games game (i am not expecting 60+ fps at 1080p) so here goes the specs so if you guys could help me in choosing something different or getting rid of something please tell me:

you'll want to get RAM with speeds as fast as possible, something like Kingston HyperX Beast RAM because it can add a lot of performance to APUs.

I wouldn't recommend getting an APU with a 7750 for CF as you can get an equally expensive CPU + dedicated GPU that outperforms :P

Console optimisations and how they will effect you | The difference between AMD cores and Intel cores | Memory Bus size and how it effects your VRAM usage |
How much vram do you actually need? | APUs and the future of processing | Projects: SO - here

Intel i7 5820l @ with Corsair H110 | 32GB DDR4 RAM @ 1600Mhz | XFX Radeon R9 290 @ 1.2Ghz | Corsair 600Q | Corsair TX650 | Probably too much corsair but meh should have had a Corsair SSD and RAM | 1.3TB HDD Space | Sennheiser HD598 | Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro | Blue Snowball

>_< APUs benefit greatly from dual channel memory too, single channel RAM isn't really a good idea

Not using an APU...

A single oc'ed 7770 beats any hybrid CF.

Also, the 760K is not an APU.

thanks for the replays so fast and good but there is a small problem in a NES there is not much space at all (230x200x85mm) so that is why i went with that config and not with a dedicated graphics card and a better cpu, also do any of you guys know of any low profile cpu heatsink?

The list I suggested is more powerful and smaller than yours.

The GeminII M4 and BIG Shuriken 2 are both good.

They're all good coolers--just make sure you have some good case ventilation.

I was planning on having two 80 mm fans on each of the sides i believe that would be enough, plus the top is going to be shrouded.
