Hey guys my friends are asking me to pick out some parts for them.

They have been console people their whole life and I'm trying to convert them.

I want to build them a pc that will run most games on altleast medium at 1080.

I've been looking at the a10-5800k with a 6670 for a crossfire hibrid but I've read in the long run the apu might not work well with high end gpu's?


Overall these are the requirements:

$600 max
Include OS
Include case
Upgradable
Better than consoles
