Hello. I want to build a gaming machine for around $1000. I think the intel sys is a little more. I'm not a tweaker. I'll try to overclock it mildly once, then leave it a alone.
STABILITY is definately more important than performance, so if is not tryed n true, don't recommend please. Based on that info, which one of these two would you recommend, insert different parts as necessary.
