Looking to build a pc with the following specs:
GPU: ASUS Strix GTX 960 2G
RAM: KINGSTON HYPER X BLUE 8GB

Kindly also suggest me the corresponding mobo best for buck.
:) Thanks in advance :)
 
Solution
I3 4160 now, i5 or i7 later when you see the need. AM3+ is as dead as nails.

Also consider the 4GB version of the 960 unless cost is a concern.

How do 4Gb version effect the gaming ?

Splendid
Naw no point in 4gb for 1080p, the only reason they made a 4gb version of the 960 is because people were going off about the 3.5gb+512mb on the 970. The 960 isnt powerfull enough to really use 4gb of vram. If you were going to spend that much might aswell get a 970
