Hello, im in the process of building a parts list for my gaming/ audio editing build. I've never built a computer before and was wondering if what the best budget CPU I should get for about $150. I'll likely be using a Evo instead of the stock fan unless the stock is decent with the CPU suggested. if stock is okay add $30 to the budget. Thanks for any help :)

Either the I5 with the stock fan so you save 30$ or a 8320FX+212+. I'd pick a I5 over many reasons one performance 2 power consumption(benefits of this cheaper PSU- board requirements)
3rd it just works well for everything not ok for some things and great in others(cough cough my CPU)
