Don't do that.

if you wait a little while you might be able to get something from the ryzen 5 or 3 series when they come out but who knows when they will come out

It is, but it has hyperthreading, and the IPC is so much better than AMD that it compensates. they're about equal, and you can get DDR4 for the future, and it has an upgrade path.

probably won't matter it will still be a fair bit better than what you have but if you can wait for the lower end ryzen

The new pentiums are dual core hyperthreaded i.e. an i3. Just make sure to also get a 200 series chipset i.e. B250 / Z270 / H210 etc...

the ryzen 3 1100 is rumored to be $129 and have 4 cores no hyperthreading

as long as i can play gta 5 and bf1 and some triple A tittles i dont really care if i go amd or intel aslong as its the best budget

Definitely don't get that AMD cpu. They are right. Stick with the pentium

hey what do you guys think about this, https://pcpartpicker.com/list/WcdZjc or this cpu Intel Core 2 Duo E8600 (OEM/Tray) its 3.3ghz

 because id rather save money now so i can do a whole rebuild in September i will do a full upgrade mobo, cpu, gpu and ram. Than i will be able to put like 1000 or so into it and get maybe a i7 and a 1060  or something ill be back on here when that time comes so i can get everyones opinion

a core 2 duo will be worse than your current pentium might just want to stay with your current setup for now if it still works and wait for till you can do a full upgrade $200 won't get you very much better than you have
