Hey guys, I am getting a list of parts ready for my first gaming PC which will be around $500. I am stuck on choosing which CPU and GPU I should use. I was thinking for the CPU, either the Intel Core i3-4160 or the AMD Athlon X4 860K, since the AMD is cheaper, I was thinking of just getting that, besides it does have 2 more cores, but if the Intel is better, is it worth spending the extra money? And I compared the two on cpuboss.com and it said they are both equal, so if that is true, the smartest thing would be to get the AMD, but I am not sure, so you guys tell me. And for the GPU, either the R9 270 2GB or the R9 280 3GB, I know the R9 280 has an extra GB, but is it that much better performance for gaming and is it worth spending more money? I hope you guys are able to help me out, thank you guys who are able to do so!
