Hey everybody, i just joined this site because it answered a lot of my questions but not all of them. I am trying to build a budget (sorta-kinda) gaming rig. My price range is about $450-$650 and I want an AMD based system.

I have done a lot of research so far but i am still wondering if this will work,here is what i gathered so far.

Motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=13-157-262&SortField=0&SummaryType=0&Pagesize=10&PurchaseMark=&SelectedRating=-1&VideoOnlyMark=False&VendorMark=&IsFeedbackTab=true&Page=2#scrollFullInfo

I do not need a mouse,keyboard or a monitor. Right now i just want to know if this build will work,and if it does will it work well. I am a gamer but not hardcore, i want to play games on medium to high settings and still enjoy the game with no lag. I wont be playing crysis 2, or black ops, i play tf2,half life,g-mod,portal...etc, so yah if you guys could help me out on this that would be great!

the 6670 is a bit underpowered. You are overdoing it on the CPU and the Motherboard.

get a Phenom II X4 955 CPU for $120, Athlon II X4 640 for $100, or an Athlon II X3 445 for $75

get an Asus Am3+ 760G for $58 or a Gigabyte 970A-UD3 for $97

get an Antec Earthwatts 380W for $39, then a HD6850 for $150.
