Hi everyone, I'm getting an AMD computer so far i have an XFX R9 390 but i need advice with the mobo, processor and RAM.
I have in mind the Asus Sabertooth 990FX R2.0 and the AMD FX 9590, my real problem is with the RAM, idk which should i go for this set and i was searching for the mhz speed limit but i couldnt find it. I like corsair cause i think works better with the heat and everyone knows about the AMD and the heat they like best friends haha. Thanks

The 9590's speed is deceiving....it's fast, but newer tech is doing a much better job at 'Instructions Per Clock' or IPC. Basically: new but slower Intel chips do more with each clock cycle than the older faster ones.
PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant

CPU: Intel Xeon E3-1231 V3 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor ($244.99 @ SuperBiiz)
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z97MX-Gaming 5 Micro ATX LGA1150 Motherboard ($124.99 @ Micro Center)
Memory: Kingston HyperX Fury Black 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($62.99 @ Amazon)
Storage: Kingston SSDNow V300 Series 120GB 2.5" Solid State Drive ($43.89 @ OutletPC)
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($49.89 @ OutletPC)
Video Card: PowerColor Radeon R9 390 8GB PCS+ Video Card (Purchased For $0.00)
Case: Thermaltake Core V21 MicroATX Mini Tower Case ($39.99 @ Micro Center)
Power Supply: Corsair RMx 1000W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply ($129.99 @ Newegg)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 Home OEM (64-bit) ($87.95 @ OutletPC)
Total: $784.68
Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available

This would be like an i7 (8 threads), and would offer great performance for many years yet. The PSU is also sized so that a second 390 could be dropped in at any time.

Nope, a Radeon GPU will work just fine with an Intel setup.
