I've come across a website called elitegamingcomputers and they have a guide on building low budget gaming pc's.

For $300 there's this one - http://www.amazon.com/lm/R2SLEVOSQPWO71/?_encoding=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&linkCode=ur2&lm_bb=&tag=gcgctest-20

And for $400 there's this one- http://www.amazon.com/lm/R2KSS6O04WCJ5H/?_encoding=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&linkCode=ur2&lm_bb=&tag=gcgctest-20&linkId=JUM37SL7MSDAZJP7

I'm looking to buy the $300 build and build it myself but I just want to know if the $400 is a lot better because if so i'll just buy the $400 build parts.

I would go with the 400$ build. The gpu is more powerfull than the integrated one in the 300$ build. And if im not wrong the FX 6300 is better than the A10-6800K. If i where you i would choose the 400$ build :)

Besides the A10-6800K only have 4 cores, the FX 6300 have 6 cores so its much better if you do alot of multitasking or streaming. :)

In all honesty I'd keep saving your money until you had about $500-600. You could get a better graphics card. A better power supply. A larger capacity hard drive. 8GB of RAM, etc. Keep saving man. It'll be worth it.

I agree with you, if you have a low budget go with amd. But if you have a higher budget, get a intel cpu. With the FX 6300 cpu would i suggest the R9 270. Its a great card for 1080p gaming and would fit the fx 6300 great
