Additional Comments:
My friend suggested me last months with this specs

AMD A8-3870K 3.0 GHz
ASRock A75M-HVS
G. Skill Ripjaws X 4GBx2 DDR3 1600 CL9

and he said if i have a budget soon, add a 6670 gpu to hybrid this rig...

And he said this build have a cons because this is Un- Upgradeable He also said that the trinity will released this year and he said that this procie is 40% faster that LLANO :p

Do you have some suggestion?
 
this is a good $300 build.

Trinity is supposed to be faster than Llano...but we have to see when it gets here, in several months. The A8 built in GPU is good enough for most games at medium settings at 1600x900, you would have to go low on gpu-intensive games like battlefield 3 or Crysis, but they are a playable 30 fps.

If you can afford to wait 5-6 months, go ahead, but if not, the A8 is adequate for the job of basic utility and light gaming.
