A friend of mine asked me to build is PC

He going to game and edit videos on it...

Is budget is from 1000$-1250$ he don't want to OC and he already have an ssd....

He don't want a fancy case.... Rather a cheap OK one...

So my main question is:

Witch CPU should I buy for him?

1.and fx-8370/8370e

2.i5-6600/i5-6500?

 

I also will be happy for hardware suggestions... 

 

 

Also we live in europe so we need it to be from amazon.de
