What's your total budget? and do you need anything like WIFI, a Keyboard, Mouse, or Monitor?

Hi! If I was you I'd go with an APU - you won't need a graphics card if you do.

Swap the Biostar to a better one, and drop the GPU, get the better psu and wait till polaris.

Hi! I believe with your budget, you're better off getting an APU. It's a CPU with a graphics core in it, and you won't have to get a graphics card. Later on you can upgrade the graphics if you so desire.

Oh My Alot of replies, thanks, but i do not want a APU because i might use the gpu for more heavy games

 

Also,Thanks! for replying i mostly need help with the whole gpu thing like im fine with almost everything its just the gpu

 

Also jack, i just need a monitor but you dont need to count that in i can deal with 1 monitor for awhile just the PC is my $300 budget, and you dont need to count the Ram in.

well for $300 the only thing you can get is an APU. Getting a dedicated gpu at that price range is not worth it at all. go with @Energycore's suggestion

[iTsNatePvP]

Alright, I'll Think About It, its just i dont want a apu for some reason  i have a APU in my current laptop and it is complete crap

Well there are bad APUs and good APUs. And the one in the list is as good as it gets, and will do minecraft quite a bit better than your laptop.

Alright but whats your thoughts with the R7 360?

get an r7 370 rather. Although it'll add $100 to your build and your $300 dollar budget will turn into $400. pair it with an i3 6100

[iTsNatePvP]

Bro, My Budget is $313 including the GPU

The graphics inside the APU are about the same as the R7 360.

 

You're better off getting this now, and when you can save up $150, get a new discrete card which will blow what we have today out of the water.

Sigh. I know it is. You cannot get a dedicated gpu for $300. you just can't. Go with the APU it has decent power and can get you through plenty of modern games

[iTsNatePvP]

Alright, Once again ill think about it and talk to my cousin

 

 

Also thank you everyone who replied, i thought i would get one person saying get a gtx 1080 and leave...

[brune67]

Nate, there isn't much you can do at your price range, you options are to wait and save until you have more money, or just go with an APU. I had to work 14 hour days for a month last year in order to build my PC, so I suggest you go and find yourself a way to make money over the summer, then build an actual decent computer.

[iTsNatePvP]

Yeah  true lol, i want a job permit so bad lol but yeah probably get an APU

 

If Anyone is wonder this is the actual part list: http://pcpartpicker.com/list/qsfQ7h

 

[brune67]

You don't necessarily need a job permit, why don't you go out and ask to cut peoples lawns for 10$, why don't you go offer to clean out their gutters for 30$. why don't you offer to weed their flower or garden planters. All you got to do is go knocking.

True My Mom doesnt let me talk to strangers/ neighbors  because i live in a condo complex

[Herman Mcpootis]

You'll want faster ram with an apu rig, so i recommend this for you:

Another thing you could do is just build yourself a test bench, and then run it on the test bench until you have enough money for a case, that way you can spend more money on the other components
