Ok so I'm goign to be building a BUDGET gaming rig for uni and I've found what sort of components i want minus the cpu. I've read so many articles I don't know what to do anymore (regarding cpu). Some people seem to be saying FX 6300/6350 and others saying get an I3. Now I recently also found out that intel will be releasing a new range in the near future. So guys help a brother out here, should I go for the AMD chip or wait for the new intel chips?

Haswell have been out for over a month :p but for gaming you dont wanna touch an i3, dual cores dont touch it, i5 is where your looking, for budget AMD is your champion.

If you post a budget the good people here will list you potential rigs.
