Hello, I am on a very low budget, I want to know which CPU I should use for the build.
Here's the specs.
http://pcpartpicker.com/p/2Otyg
If you're lazy, XFX Radeon HD 7770 1 GB, 8 GB Kingston RAM, 1 TB HDD, 430W Power supply.
Should I get the Athlon X4 750K or FX 6300 or FX 4130? Which one of them offers best price/performance?

fx 6300 is far better than a 750k. I would spend the extra $12 and get this R9 260x instead though.

Actually, I modified your build a little and changed the case out. Now it is only like $3 more. :lol:

Thanks for the suggestion! I forgot about the R series. Also do you know any good GENERIC ram? I don't want the ones that costs $100 and have these weird designs. I just need stock normal RAM, 2X4GB. Thanks. Also 1333 Mhz

It looks great and has good speed. However it is WAY too expensive for what I need. I need some 8 GB for less than $60 or $50. It's fine if you don't know any.
