Planning First Build

[greenbeanguy]

I am planning my first build, does it look good so far? http://pcpartpicker.com/list/NRXJVY I need the cost to stay under $400. I already have peripherals and Windows 10. Thx for the help!

you can get evga 450 watts for the same price. It will be better.

EVGA doesn't have a 450w Unit...?

This gets you the ability to upgrade to an i5 or i7 later and the i3 is more powerful than the A8.

Beat me to it with the i3 build lol...I was thinking about a rx 460 for this build too...probably a better choice than a 750ti

Where can i find the 460? it seems like it just came out if i'm not mistaken

[greenbeanguy]

oh, and at the bottom under compatibility notes it say "Some AMD A88X chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Kaveri CPUs." What would i do to update BIOS without using the CPU?

The 460 should be released the same day as the 480...June 29th (aka Wednesday) lol
