Okay, I'm planning on building a custom made desktop but the price can't be too high (can't exceed the 700€) so it can hold at least Tera Rising on max settings, I was discussing this subject with my friend and he said that an intel CPU is better for gaming but i don't know the problem between intel and amd cpu's if you can help in this aswell i would be very glad plus would you guys like to post the recommended components for the build if possible, thank you
Need help building a gaming desktop good for the buck.

You mentioned BF4 so I thought of a 8-core CPU like the 8350 since that game has good benchmarks with that chip.
The 6300 uses the same socket as the 8350 and is the budget gamer choice, 6 cores and good performance but hey, just a few more cash you get the 8320.
I thought the british site of pcpartpicker would give the right price, my bad.
