I'm on a tight budget and wanted to assemble a home pc with light to medium gaming range. Will the processor and gpu be decent and good enuf for the same ? Are they compatible ?
Please suggest other components like motherboard , ram , psu , ssd for the same . Having a budget of 500 bucks.

I wouldn't think it would be way too much running at stock. FM2/FM2+ I just cannot recommend after the disappointment that is Kaveri. I went with i3 with H81 board, this time, just to get a better GPU.

Buy your RAMs from the Gigabyte QVL list -- 2x4GB should run less than $70, but a single 4GB stick for half that will work just dandy.

Not sure what the deal is with the GTX650 (if you own it, or not). You can snag a Radeon HD7770 for $100 or so that will beat it up pretty good.

The FX-6300 is capable of support a much better video card than that so I would hardly called it "well balanced". Got just a moderate OC on mine (4.0 Ghz) and it does great with a GTX 670

im sure it does rite up until you play a cpu bound game. im not disputing the fact it works well with a 670 but he asked if the 650 and the 6300 were a good fit which they are...
