Hey, I'm about to buy these parts for my first light gaming pc build, directed to LoL and general browsing.

I trying to keep the price under 500$


I would like constructive criticism based on my build for personal light gaming use.

I have been recommended to buy the AMD Fx-6300, in placement the athlon 750x.

Isn't the athlone extremely price efficient, and effective compared to the 6300. Is the 30$ a huge difference?

Feel free to modify my build.
Tyvm, I'm knew in the field.

Rather be $20 over with a better build. Or save up for an r9 270x like previously mentioned. (better mobo to)
Since you mentioned this is just a light gaming build, it should be fine the way it is.

https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?key=0Ag...
The mobo will work with the 6300 as long as you don't OC. You'd need to spend $20 for a better board to OC with.

In the end it's just more about if $50 is worth it to you for a more quality build as your listed build will play LoL fine.
