Not really an equivalent, but it will game better for the same price:

This is a direct equivalent in performance. It's not a build I would recommend, but it's the closest to yours purely as a comparison of performance.

If you actually wanted to buy an Intel + Nvidia build, I would recommend different parts, so don't use this post as anything other than a general vague guide.

Once again, just to be completely clear, I am not recommending this build since it would not be a significant upgrade. It is posted purely for informative purposes.

The i3-4350 is comparable in gaming performance to an FX-8320.
The Gigabyte, Intel B85 chipset is comparable to the Gigabyte, AMD 970 chipset.
RAM is the same, PSU is the same, etc.
The GTX 760 is the closest new card Nvidia has right now to the R9 270X.

Yes, the R9 280 is a faster than the R9 270x.

The second build will let you game at higher settings and higher fps compared to the first build.

If you actually wanted to buy an Intel + Nvidia build, I would recommend different parts, as both your build and the Intel+Nvidia equivalent would be somewhat imbalanced.

Your question was unclear.
I thought you were simply curious about what kind of Intel + Nvidia parts it would take to match the build you posted.

so i think ill go with this unless someone comes up with a better build and also as i am going to be getting this around Christmas will i get some discounts ? :D 


By Christmas time you can probably get an entirely different build brand/cost wise, but the base components ( i5, R9 280, 8GB ram, etc.) should remain the same.

If you want to see how the system will perform on a specific game just go to youtube and search " Core i5 R9 280 [insert game name here]" and you should see lots of gameplay videos.

You should be able to play most games around high/ultra settings with fps around 60 on a 1920x1080 screen resolution.

I suppose, but I'd rather pay $10 more and get double the storage. That way you could use it to load a couple of games/ programs as well.
