Build for my little sister

[GenialGiraffe]

I have this build so far for my little sister link. I didn't actually buy all these parts at the price it says, most of it I got from my cousin or had on hand. What I'm mainly concerned about is whether this motherboard/cpu can handle an RX 560 or a GTX 1050. From what I can tell there won't be a bottleneck but I don't know enough about old AMD motherboards to know if they run on uefi. Any suggestions or alternative graphics cards?

mother board wont work with prosesor. your chip am3/am2+   your better off getting a fx 6300 or fx 8350 with a m5a97 r2.0  and gtx 1050

Why bother with those old CPUs anymore? Get newer stuff.

Old stuff still works and is usually cheaper, and like the OP said they already had some of the stuff

you'd be surprised how well some of that old stuff holds up. 

 

@OP I'd try find a C2D system as you can get one SUPER cheap, if its a later model one you'll even get DDR3 and then track down a Core2quad, that combo with a 660Ti is actually a really decent system, combo a SSD in there and you'll beat most i3 systems even with its old age. 

 

If thats to old look for a 3rd gen i5 or i7, my GF's rig is running a i7-3770 and its kicking ass with the 970 in it

I mainly meant FX CPUs.

ok there I do agree. ive always avoided them played with the C2D/Q for so long

There's definitely a chip in my cousins motherboard (no idea what yet), I'll consider upgrading it but could the motherboard I have currently use a 1050? Like I said I have all these parts on hand for the most part except for the gpu.
