why did you buy a apu and over clock it also its an older chipset then fx 4350 and also its a dual core

I didn't have that much of a budget at the time and it's not even a true dual core. Also I overclocked it since it wasn't performing well. Then it continued to perform badly and I stopped using it and decided to upgrade my desktop upon receiving ownership of my friend's GTX 780 that was left over from his upgrade.

No, I am done with FM2. Also there aren't any FM2 CPUs that wouldn't bottleneck my 780 in any way. So I decided to go Ryzen(it wasn't an easy decision, and I still might end up not doing it).

Lol. Too late, the oldest hardware I'll be using is my GPU in this build. There is no way I'm getting an FX CPU, all that does is put off the upgrade longer. Also, I wouldn't be able to make use of CrossFire since I have an Nvidia GPU and I don't have enough reason to even get another one of those.

It's not SLI-certified, which technically means I can't do it.
