processor for budget build

[niksaka]

my budget only allows for either an i3 7100, a G4560 or a FX - 8300.

 

need advice for which one would be best to go with as it is my first build.

 

thanks in advance!

I'm not sure how to do that...

G4560 from me as well

i3 are pointless because of pentium, fx is too old, either buy the pentium or wait for ryzen 3.

What is your total budget? Based on your original post, I assume you don't have other parts either since there are different socket CPUs.

thanks but in Denmark that comes closer to a 550$ build due to the heavier tax over here.

Ah I see, sorry when you said your budget in US, I  assumed you were in the US. I tried putting together the build on edbpriser.dk and it does indeed come to $510us. 

 

Out of the ones listed above G4560 has the best potential for future upgradability. Though I would personally just save a bit more and go with the R5 1400. Because of Ryzen introducing cheap multicore, multithreaded processors, there is a good chance intel will follow suit. There are already rumors of i9 going around, and I personally feel dual cores are a thing of the past.
