Im planning on making an AMD build but if you have better ideas, you can suggest them.

My budget would be less than 350$

im gaming on a 1600x900 monitor btw :)

Wait. Just wait, mate.

AMD announced their new APUs which will ship in Q1 2014, they will be of excellent value (cheap) and will provide a proper gaming punch.

You have to understand by having such a low budget, you get almost nothing for your money. So either saving up or waiting is key for you to get something useable.
