Intel will only cost more and take money away form the GPU and lower your gaming experience.
 
Solution
Despite your preference for Intel, the build above is a very good one for that budget. If you go with Intel in your budget range, you will need to take too much money away from the graphics card, and you will end up with an overall weaker system.
 


Thanks man! Just a quick question because you are a mod, is there a way to easily delete more than one inbox message at at time or do them quickly? I have like 10 pages of PM's and i need to ditch like the last 80% of them.
