im not sure on what components to get and what not
please help me on making a peng gaming computer.

 

[PHANT0M_SWAG]

I Love the processors from amd fx please include that and please give me a good graphics card safe g !!

As i told your i dont want any other proccessor than 8320

 

[tiny voices]

You will get lower settings in games because to fit in the the budget you will have to lower the GPU.

 

[PHANT0M_SWAG]

what games will it run?

 

[tiny voices]

Anything you want it to on high settings. Should max some games as well. Changing the CPU won't change the gaming performance.

 

[PHANT0M_SWAG]

so will it run 2013 games in 60 fps

 

[tiny voices]

Yes.

 

[PHANT0M_SWAG]

thankz for that option can i please have another option where the motherboard supports hdmi and its one of asus ones

 

[tiny voices]

Why does the motherboard need HDMI? the Video card uses HDMI. You don't connect anything to the video ports on the motherboard.

 

[PHANT0M_SWAG]

i really dont want a quad core

 

[tiny voices]

the fx6300 is a 6-core.

 

[PHANT0M_SWAG]

oh sh!t i forgot about that

 

[PHANT0M_SWAG]

but can i have another option just to compare

 

[tiny voices]

If you change to more expensive parts (CPU, motherboard) You will have to lower the GPU and you will lose gaming performance.

 

[Hooey]

Tiny Voices is correct, the 6300 is a fine processor and you will have lower gaming performance if you were to sacrifice GPU

 

[Hazzacanary]

Dude, listen to what tiny voices is telling you - he's bang on! For a gaming pc, it's better to spend money on the GPU than the CPU. Also, do you want windows, or do you need an operating system at all?

 

[PHANT0M_SWAG]

isnt it better if i get AMD FX-6200 instead of 6300 as it gives you 3.8ghz

 

[PHANT0M_SWAG]

no ive got windows ultimate 64 bit at home

 

[PHANT0M_SWAG]

isnt it better if i get AMD FX-6200 instead of 6300 as it gives you 3.8ghz instead of 3.5

"That's not the only difference between this and the previous chip as, despite having the same general make-up and 14MB cache size, the FX-6300 has got a lower TDP than the Bulldozer. At 95W then it's a little more efficient than its progenitor.
Pleasingly that drop in both TDP and clockspeed doesn't mean this is a slower chip in real-world terms.
The benchmarks show that almost across the board this chip is faster than the higher clocked six-core CPU. Only the x264 video encoding test highlights the slower clockspeed, posting slower frame rates than the FX-6200."

nope, the fx 6300 is better, as it is based on the newer piledriver architecture, whereas the 6200 is a bulldozer chip (I believe). Piledriver performs better than bulldozer, and, if clock speed is a worry, you can just overclock an fx chip.

 

[PHANT0M_SWAG]

and if i overclock this with all the components tinyvoice gave me will it be fine
