So I've decided to get a new PC with a R9 270X and AMD Fx 6300 and maybe 4~8 GB ram but I know nothing about motherboards or PSU or cases or anything other than CPUs, GPUs and Ram.
so my questions are....
1-Is the R9 270x with the AMD FX 6300 will do good ? and what are my alts in both GPUs and CPUs at the same budget ?
2-what are my available options to Motherboards, PSUs, cases ?

***PS. I live in egypt with a budget about 4500~5000 L.E other than a monitor cause i have an old one. (GPU about 1.6k and Cpu about 850~900 L. E , 4gb about 310 L.E)
**This PC will be for mainly gaming and graphics stuff like creating 3D Models.
*If there's something cheaper and would be less in performance by 5~10% it would be nice.
1$ = 7.1 L.E.
Thanks in advance.
 
Solution
yes the r9 270x and the fx 6300 will do just fine for psu get a good 500 watt psu from seasonic ,xfx,evga.....
a 970fx board would be just fine for fx 6300.....and for case get a mid tower case as per your choice.......

Thanks for the replay and nice Itachi avatar btw .
well the board is cheaper than i expected and it supports Xfire for the far future XD I found an MSI one for 600 L.E :D , and for the PSU http://www.egprices.com/en/product/evga-500w-psu-100-w1-0500-kr--maximum-hardware will this do ?
and for the case which do i get... umm there is cooler master, thermaltak, crosair .. XD and some of them has 500w PSU ? like this one

and one last thing sorry, what is the difference between stuff like MSI, Gigabyte (idk what is which) editions of the video card ?
 
yes the psu will be fine from evga..........you will see very little difference between those brands in buying GPU so go for the cheaper one i have heard many positive reviews about gigabyte r9 270x but if u want the best r9 270x then go for the sapphire toxic.....

Hi Abdo, not sure if you still need advice but the GPU that you recommended is a very good one for mediumum level cards also I I were you I would look into getting a FX-8350 over the FX 6300 I found that getting a cooler master is always a good idea an also go for a 600W Corsair PSU gold award these come with at least 2/3 years warranty and they are one of the best on the market, the difference between things like MSI, Gigabyte & Sapphire are just the makers of the card most of them are really good I usually stick to MSI or Gigabyte but ive also heard nothing too bad about Sapphire as a maker

The 8350 looks like a beast but it's about 600 L.E more it's about more 70$ idk if i can afford that and I'm buying a PC from scratch ... monitor, HD ... I might go for it if I got 4gb Ram it would save me about 300LE i guess.
So the final PC build could be like this :
CPU : Fx 6300/Fx 8350,
GPU : MSI R9 270X gaming edition 2 GB.
Ram : 1x4gb / 2x4gb Corsair vengeance ... and I have a question here do i get the 1333 or 1600 or 1866 one ??
Case : Cooler master Elite 311 mid tower cabinet / Cooler master k280/281 without PSU.
PSU : EVGA 600B 600W / EVGA 500W
HD : any 500g/1tb will do.
Monitor : also any 17 or 19 will do ... I'm not a 720\1080p geek,

-All these ORs depends on how much money I'd get XD
is this a good build and thanks.

Hi Abdo, if you are on quite a tight budget I would suggest going for the Fx 6300, because for a budget CPU this one is one of the best but the FX-8350 gives you a reliable CPU for a good couple of years only reason I suggest it, and when it comes down to the RAM you will want the 1600 unless the 1333 is a lot cheaper, the difference is very small and not always the jump in price, ide say go for the 600W PSU because between the graphics card and the CPU these will consume a ton of power, for the HDD if you are using it for 3D modelling then I would say get the 1TB because 3D stuff takes up a ton of room, and in all honesty I would always suggest getting a 1080P monitor as they give you better quality and when doing 3D modelling is almost a must,

So this is my final build after changing the monitor, Motherboard cause I've heard bad reviews about and changed the PSU to 600W.
The storing won't be a problem I have 1tb on my notebook and 500g external, and i'll just do basic modeling for games.

One last question sorry, I see a couple of brands of the R9 270x, MSI, ASUS, Gigabyte ..etc !
Which one is better and why in terms of cooling cause my room is the hottest spot on earth and performance?
Noise wouldn't be a problem, I like computer noises XD
(Excluding of course the toxic one cause it's 300~400 L.E more and my budget just went to the roof :D)

Asking Questions is fine Abdo this is how people learn :), and most of the mentioned makers are good, but I would highly recommended the Sapphire ones, they are known as the best manufacture of the R9 line due to the quality of the build, Asus on the other hand are very good with their cooling systems so for max performance Sapphire for cooling Asus

Ummmm ... I was lying when i said last question ... I Think I'm gonna keep asking till I get this PC XD
my question now is . Do the motherboard or Case come with LAN & Sound card and if it doesn't do i get any cards for both ?
and a question how to remove the 'solved' thing, cause i want this to continue for future reference :D

Sorry about the late reply Abdo been on holiday this weekend, all Motherboard as standard come with A basic sound card and LAN or Internet port, if by this you mean wireless card then no you would have to buy that separately
