Hello everyone. I have $500 to spend on a new build so this is what I was thinking:

AMD Athlon X4 750K Trinity 3.4GHz Socket FM2 100W Quad-Core Desktop Processor

ASUS F2A85-M/CSM FM2 AMD A85X (Hudson D4) SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard

Mushkin Enhanced Radioactive 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)

Cooler Master Hyper N520 - CPU Cooler with Copper Base and 5 Heatpipes

Seagate Barracuda ST1000DM003 1TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive

LITE-ON DVD Burner

CORSAIR Builder Series CX600 600W ATX12V v2.3 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC Power Supply

Rosewill RNX-N250PCe (RNWD-11005) PCI Express 300/300Mbps Transfer/Receive Rate 2T2R Wireless Adapter

 

The total for these are under $500 after tax here in California.

If you have suggestions on how I could get more bang for buck, there are some conditions.

You must use parts off newegg.

All of the parts above are necessary, so I would need similar replacements.

I have a case already.

I have a graphics card already.

And yes I do NEED an optical drive.

Thanks for reading and any suggestions would be helpful.

It's a great chip, but make sure that you pair it with an FM2+ motherboard.
