Getting a new AMD budget gaming PC built, is this alright?

Benjamin Feutrill · Jul 20, 2014

Hey. I'm getting a new budget pc built, and was wondering are these parts sufficient to run games like bf3, call of duty ghosts and skyrim at 1366x768 on medium to high settings with 4x anti-aliasing and 2x ambient occlusion.

My build (picked out already, suggestions are greatly welcomed):

>AMDXF6300 ($150 aud)
>Asus M5A78L-m 760G ($100 aud)
>Corsair 4GB x2 1333Mhz ($65)
>1TB Western Digital Caviar Blue 7200RPM ($80)
>R9 270X 1.1GHZ 2GB
>Im looking at a few PSU's, will get what ever they have in stock that is decent 500+ watt
>Case what ever looks nice and has sufficient cooling

Thanks for all the replies and help.

The build looks good for your criterias and should run the newest games pretty good

Thanks! Im not sure about PSU and case yet but that will be cheap preferably. I'm just worried about 1333MHZ ram vs 1600MHz.

Benjamin Feutrill :

There is not much difference in gaming concerning 1333MHz or 1600MHz, probably 1 FPS per second

Mostly 1333MHz and 1600MHz are on almost the same price, but if you are really into the FPS in a game, then i would go with the 1600MHz

So its bassicly up to you

P.S. the 1600MHz handles multitasking a little better

ONLY get a PSU from Antec, XFX, Seasonic. This is the single most important part of your computer. If it fails (cheap one do every day) it can easily fry every single component of your PC.

RAM speed means nothing when multitasking. Sorry. It only matters in encoding, and very slightly in games. The difference between normal old 1600mhz RAM and 2133mhz RAM in game is 0-3fps. Generally NEVER buy faster than 1600mhz RAM unless it costs the same.

My fault then
