Hello! I need help. Im getting a budget gaming PC soon and im having hard time to decide which of the following build should i choose.

A. -Amd A8 6600k
-4GB 1333mhz

B. - FX 4130
- Sapphire 7730

- 4GB RAM 1333mhz

Im reading some reviews that an apu needs a good ram with atleast 1600mhz speed to get nice fps which is almost the same price of the 7730 card if i get the 4GB x2 kit. My question is which build is better? A or B? Should i get the fx and buy a video card or Should i get the a8 and buy a good ram?

Thanks...

You will be able to upgrade CPU, GPU & memory later.
