ASUS R9 280 DCII TOP OC 3GB GDDR5

Cool, i was kinda running around and picking up coz i need my new computer fast, old broke lol.

So is it good for gaming overall? What about overclocking that CPU?
 


Yea,the build is pretty dam good for gaming.
You can OC the 8320,but make sure you have a good CPU cooler,like a CM Hyper 212 EVO or a Noctua NH-D14. ;)
All the best. ;)
 


Yea,it's a good CPU cooler.
If you wan't to OC,get a CM Hyper 212 EVO or a Noctua NH-D14 if you want to OC really high.
With the CM Hyper 212,you could hit up to 4.2 or 4.3 GHz and with the D14,up to 4.6 GHz.
But no way to tell that except actaully OCing,since the exact same chipsets can be different when it comes to OCing.
All the best. ;)

[strike]Before you get too hyped up on overclocking you need to make sure your motherboard is even capable. When it comes to overclocking FX chips are very dependent on quality VRM's. A lot of these basic 870/970 boards out there are barely capable of running the FX 8XXX at stock due to their low quality 4+1 VRM designs. I have even seen some that advertise the ability to run them but will crash when the chip turbo's... FX really does need a good quality board with a minimum of 6+2 Phase Digital VRM's or 8+2 Phase Analog VRM's to ensure good overclocking and system stability. [/strike]

Never mind lol, you posed as I was writing. That board should be able to get you a little over 4 Ghz. It's still only a 4+1 VRM board but it is one of the best ones made at the moment.
