Hey, I am planning a new build for few friends and I want some info on AMD processors as these will be budget builds. I want to know what are some of the best processors for lowest prices that wont bottleneck gpus with 4gb of VRAM.

Thanks.

What GPU's? What budget?

since i think you arent looking into ryzen, it would be smart to get a 4 core, 4 thread fx cpu.

The Kaby Lake Pentiums are faster than any of AMD's current quad-core offerings, so I'd honestly look into one of those. As for the GPU, the one I'd personally look at is the RX470 STRIX 4GB.

So much facepalm...

A gtx 780 with 4gb is not equivelent to something like a RX 480 4gb.

Some of the Athlon quad cores are okay, but I'd try for the new 4 thread Pentiums over them.

So what CPU GPU combo you guys recommend? Preferably the CPU under 100 GBP on uk.partpicker.com
