Change the cpu for the FX-6300 : http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/amd-cpu-fd6300wmhkbox
Get cheaper ram, the geil is indeed cheaper : http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/geil-memory-gec38gb1600c9dc

I'd get a motherboard with the 970 chipset : http://www.amazon.co.uk/Asus-M5A97-R2-0-Motherboard-PCI-Express/dp/B008RPZ5SC/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1360605734&sr=8-3 (pcpartpicker doesn't show it)

 

[adrianc1]

so to that motherboard http://www.amazon.co.uk/Asus-M5A97-R2-0-Motherboard-PCI-Express/dp/B008RPZ5SC/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1360605734&sr=8-3 will the cables be long enough in my psu to reach? thats the psu http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-power-supply-p1450sx2b9?

 

[djangoringo]

Yes, it will reach.

 

[adrianc1]

thank you very much but looks like the 4pin connector is abit too high but you are the expert here and thanks for your help if any one else wants to express their opinion go on

 

[adrianc1]

What would you people say about this build because i will not be using my 7850 for a while as my brother is going to buy a new build in about 4 months so for for 4 months i will have to be playing on something right? so is this processor good ? people say games dont use more than 4 cores and also thats a good processor cause it has 3.6ghz? and also the cpu has its own integrated card so i can play bf3 smoothly as i checked on youtube. So should i get this build?

[adrianc1]

so anyone willing to help?

 

[djangoringo]

You can't use the 7850 in the FX buid(and with the fx-6300, not the fx-6100) ? if so then get the apu, though, get the A10-5800k if possible.

 

[adrianc1]

But later i will be able to add the 7850 to the a10 or a8 5800k 4.8ghz yes?

 

[djangoringo]

Yes.

 

[adrianc1]

and just a quick question is this psu i choose long enough to reach the 4pin and 21 pin connector on the mobo?

[djangoringo]

Yes, it's all compatible, it's a good setup, if you can't pay for the A10 cpu.

 

[adrianc1]

will i need a cpu cooler? or the a8 comes with one arleady?

 

[djangoringo]

It has the stock cooler, it's suffice for it.

 

[adrianc1]

But later on in abotu 4months if i connect my 7850 to the mobo will the stock cooler be fine or i can get a £30 in case? and i have 3 fans on my pc case so that could be enough? and also is there a very bug diffrence between a8 and a10 in fps?

 

[djangoringo]

The A10-5800k has a slightly better on die gpu.
You don't need an additional cooler for now or when you'll get the 7850.
