Hey all, been fluctuating between builds recently and got really stumped with the cpu.
So I have two choices under the 80 dollar range (extreme budget, lol), either the intel g860 at 59.99 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116405&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=
or the amd athlon at 79.99 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103871&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=
I plan to play games such as wow, tera, rift, planetside 2, bf3, just pretty much any indie, fps, or mmo on the market as of now.
The rest of the system is here:

I can figure out the mobo as well, but the cpu is the problem. Is it worth the extra money, and will the 4 cores help with games? Is power consumption a problem?
