Here is my Current Build:

  • AMD A10-5800K Trinity Quad-Core
    GIGABYTE GA-G1.Sniper A88X
    EVGA SSC 02G-P4-3653-RX GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB
    ADATA XPG Gaming Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) (only 4GB in total)
    COOLMAX VL-600B 600W ATX 12V V2.3 Power Supply
    Rosewill RCX-Z1 CPU Cooler



I want something that can run most games on Ultra. I also want to be able to stream at 1080p and at least medium settings on most games while streaming. Here is what I was looking at for a new processor/motherboard combo:

  • Amd FX-8350
    ASUS M5A78L-M LX PLUS

I play a wide variety of games. The game I play the most though is Counter Strike: Global Offensive. I also play World of warcraft, a lot of horror games, I want to play Battlefield but can't run it currently. I basically want to build this so if I want to pick up a game it will run it without random lag. With the steam summer sale I will probably play a lot more games so would be nice if I can stream it all and not have any problems.

I am looking to spend less that $250. The most I want to do is $300 but if it comes down to it I can go up to $350 (that is the absolute most).

Looking order this all by Monday (6/23/2014). So fast response would be appreciated if you can. I can wait longer though.

Want to say thank you to everyone who post and gives suggestions ahead of time. Hope we can make this work well.

EDIT: I am using OBS to stream also. Not sure if that will make a difference in anything though but figured i would put it in there.
