Hello guyz!
I'm making a gaming pc build for my girl friend. But i have no idea what CPU i should get hear.
I've already gotten her a 7750 and i already had a am2+ mobo laying around. So it has to be AMD!
I don't know which cpu i should get her. What's a cpu that is 60$ or below that wont bottleneck?
Thanks for the help!

I believe that's true, but he has a AM2+ motherboard so an APU is not an option.
 


Oh wow, good point... somehow I read that as FM2 without thinking... wow, AM2+, that takes me way back lol
and yeah, I think the Athlon aatje linked would be the best you can get. at this point it's not a problem of price, but limited performance. hunt around for the best Athlon chip you can find, maybe you can get lucky on ebay
