Note: I live 30 miles away from microcenter that is in Madison heights, MI. I have 2700 in my bank account that is not going to any bills. I want to build a budget computer. I don't know if I should go with amd fx or one of the apu versions. Also, this is meant to be temporary/sold until I get the courage and knowledge to go all out and build a Full apx tower build (Likely Intel, unless amd catches up), but even then I likely won't get the top of the line stuff... but you never know, I might change my mind... but things get outdated pretty fast.
I have never overclocked before, but I want to try it for the cpu and probably the video card (how different is this for the gpu than for the cpu?)(And where do I find recommended overclocks for them?).
I want an SSD hardrive, but i would really like to be able to reuse it in my next build, is this possible?
I know the ram I won't be able to reuse, but it'd have to be DDR3 anyway, so it doesn't matter.
What is the difference between AMD FX 8320E and AMD FX 8320?
If you guys could recommend everything i'll need and should get for my computer, that would be very helpful, fans, case, recommended heatsink, motherboard, cpu, power supply, etc.
Microcenter apparently price matches newegg now, which may help me save a few dollars.
Thank you, the current microcenter sale ends on the 15th, should I possibly wait for the next sale?
