Hi everyone, my first post in the .uk version of this amazing website and I need your help!
I am thinking of skip this next gen console for the time being as they are kind of PC and I rediscovered the joy of steam too! I am planning to build in a micro ATX case the below configuration and I wanted to have some opinions:
Motherboard: Asus M5A78L-M/USB3 Motherboard
Product Type : Motherboard - micro ATX
Chipset Type : AMD 760G / AMD SB710
Max Bus Speed : 2600 MHz
Max Supported Memory : 16 GB
Supported RAM Technology : DDR3 SDRAM
Processor: AMD Piledriver FX-8 Eight Core 8350 4.00Ghz AM3+
Memory: Corsair Vengeance Blue 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-15000 C9 1866MHz Dual Channel
Graphic: MSI AMD Radeon R7 260X OC 2GB GDDR5
Hard Drive: SanDisk SSD SATA III 2.5" 128GB
Optical: LiteOn DS-6E2SH Slim SATA Blu-ray
The solid state drive would be only to speed up the boot and I would then leave a more standard 7200rpm hard drive to deal with files and other apps.
All the above shopping around comes to slightly less than £500.00 it may vary a little bit as I am still unsure about what case would be idea, I want a small case so to give it a less computer look!
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
Thank you in advance
