I have recently got the MSI A88-g45 MoBo.

As well as the, NZXT 410 Mid tower (RED).

And the Corsair RM 650 WTT Power Supply.

Would this be a good choice? A10-6800k

Or is there a better one out there for around the same pricing?

"wanted a gaming system of more $$$ i should go with the Combo of something more like"

Most certainly the MSI Gaming R9 270 and FX 6300.

With the APU, I would get that A10 but for gaming, there isn't really a point getting one if your going to buy a card later.

Well the best CPU for that line of APUs and for that motherboard is the A10-7850k but that will set you back by costing another 30-40 dollars compared with the A10-6800k. The 7850k is a newer generation but the performance difference is not huge though it does have better integrated graphics. If you're on a tight budget or don't need a lot of graphic performance, APUs are good but if you do want to play games, you may want to consider getting a FX processor or athlon ii x4 processor with some graphics card.

Thank you. I have thought about the return aspect. I only play WoW, and Sometimes Skyrim. Thats really about it, lol. I do not, however, mind spending the extra few bucks. My wonder is that, can i get a new graphics card for a few hundred if i get the 7850k? And will it be worth it? Well, i would like to be under a few hundred, (R9 270x) ?

Ok, i will look into that, for sure. Thank you! :) If i were to just go with the APU, then, i should go with the A10-7850k. But if i wanted a gaming system of more $$$ i should go with the Combo of something more like

MSI R9 290 Gaming

AMD FX 6300

Oops, I forgot to mention in my first post that he would have to change the motherboard as well if he were to go for a FX processor.
