saihamaru · Dec 11, 2017

good morning gentlemen
to be honest, i'm a newbie in hardware, so i need help deciding what should i buy

i plan to buy GTX 1060 6gb GPU pretty soon
i have this right now :
CPU : AMC Athlon X4 860k
Motherboard : MSI A68HM-E33 (MS-7721)
GPU : Radeon HD 7770 1gb

i have around 200$ budget to buy new motherboard, CPU and RAM if i buy GTX1060

what would you guys recommend?
and please keep it AMD, thanks

Budget is small, this is the cheapest I could get but it is still over budget. The G4560 is an Intel chip but it will work well with a GTX 1060-6GB. To go to a Ryzen 3 build you have to spend more. The Ryzen 3 1200 will be a bit faster than the G4560, especially if you play CPU demanding game.
