Hi, I'm new but I'm not new with computers and I'm hoping someone can help me here.
I'm building a new PC rig for a friends computer and I want to make sure the components are completely perfect & compatible with each other?
The reason I am just making sure, is that I want someone else's opinion with the AMD FX series CPU's. Are they bad, good? Easy to setup? I saw that I MAY have to do a BIOS update but that's no problem.
I recently built another build for a friends CPU using an AMD FX CPU and all he is having is problem after problem. My concern is that I don't want to have another issue. I've built around seven PC's in the past, so the building process is not the issue.
He wanted a dirt cheap computer, but powerful for gaming, 3D rendering and other things. Every sways towards Intel CPU's at the moment but he primarily wanted it to be cheap.
I got him the AMD FX-6300 6-core as I've seen benchmark results on gaming and it comes up quite high, plus it tackles 3D rendering extremely well, too.
