I want to build a cheap gaming DESKTOP, for league of legend and AOE, nothing too FANCY.

Should i get this is extremely cost effective apu and i save money from the cpu/gpu combo

I got a really food price for AMD 9590, for 150 brand new in box, i could possible build a desktop from that, what is your recommendation?

I have the offer for it tomorrow should i go through?
maybe i can get then 9590 and resell it

I would go with the 9590 and use it.

I dislike the APUs for gaming computers. They're wonderful for media computers, that are kinda 'fire and forget', but there WILL come a time in a gaming computer's life when the APU just isn't cracking it.

Either get the cheap 9590, or get something like the Anniversary Edition Pentium if you really want to save money.

Until AMD gets their hardware doing what they want it too and people start coding stuff to take advantage of it (three guesses which one of these is less likely, first two don't count) APUs are going to be iffy at best for current gaming.
