I recommend going with an Intel CPU over an amd because they tend to run cooler and more efficient and you should take the cx500 over the 430 for future upgrades and you might wanna go for the 7850 as a video card

I'm not going Intel because of cost. Amd processors are great for beginners because they deliver entry-level performance at a reasonable cost. I love Intel but I don't have that kind of money.
