Hi, I'm getting a new pc for gaming and would like your opinion please.
Budget +- $450 for the main components.
MB ($110) - MSI H55-P31 - LGA 1156 4xDDR3-1333 6xSATAII 6CH Audio Gigabit LAN MicroATX Motherboard PIMS-H55M-P31
CPU ($157) - Intel lga1156 i3 530 built-in 733mhz GPU Dual core 2.93ghz Processor FRCP-i11i3D530
RAM ($76) - Corsair VS2GB1333D3 2Gb/2048mb ddr3-1333 Desktop Memory Module FRME-C2G3V13C9
GPU ($130) - Sapphire HD5570 1080p HDMi ready DirectX 11 support Eyefinity 1Gb 128bit 4 channel DDR3 Graphics Card
I can get the i3 540 for an extra $25, but I'm already pushing my budget.
I was also looking at a AMD build but figured the i3 will be better?
MD ($84) - Asus M4N68T-M socket AM3 2xDDR3-1800 4xSATA on-board 256mb vga all-in-one Micro ATX Motherboard
CPU ($100) - Amd Athlon II x3 435 Socket AM3 Backward Compatible 95w Triple-core 2.9Ghz Processor FRCP-AAT435
The pricing is not very accurate because I'm converting from ZAR.
Any advise will be appreciated
Thanks
