This is the first time I build a PC, this are all the parts ive already bought: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3xSWm

Now, Im looking for a GPU with "bang for buck" as a priority. Of course id love to play new games at high settings if possible. This are some options:

http://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-GDDR5-2GB-2xDVI-Graphics-GV-R927OC-2GD/dp/B00GWSYVUY/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top

Which one would you guys choose? If you think of any other better card within that price range suggestions are very welcomed.

Thanks!
 


Agreed. The CPU portion of the APU is going to hold you back no matter what, so in about a year you'll likely need to replace that anyway. APU's make sense for non-gaming systems; pairing them with dedicated GPU's is just silly.
