Hello,
I am going to buy a new cpu and I am kind of on a low budged.So this is the CPU I was recommended buying: Intel Pentium G860
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116405
I have seen people having this processor able to handle every game out there at reasonable FPS. I was just wondering what you guys think about gaming with this processor.(I am not going to record my games or stream so I guess it would be sufficient)

i hope you're buying quality components especially the power supply, other than that the build looks good. Although for gaming the 7750 is really close on price to the 7770, it may be worth checking it out. This is what i gathered from amazon.

Well I am on a 17'' with 1280x1024 resolution so I guess the 7750 would do the work for most games.And for the parts' quality I can't garantee because I am not building it myself, I will have an
IT specialist to do all the work, the man who offered these parts, I think he is trustworthy and won't let me down, but the budget is really tight every $ counts.

lol i got a 17" 1280x1024 i guess at that resolution the 7750 would be nice, but try your best to get a step up in gpu. If possible

First of all I really appreciate your feedback.
Well games like :
LoL, WoW MoP, Assassin's creed, Dishonored, Bioshock, Minecraft, Dota 2, Smite I am pretty much into MMORPGs, MOBAs, maybe single player games with cool stories, I am not a fan of FPS games like BF, CoD, MW.

I was also thinking about changing the sapphire to a gtx 460 I think the prices are close what do you think?

it depends on which 460 i'm not too sure on the exact specs but if you look at this

Hmm i really don't know Hitachi or Western Digital, and for the processor I really think 5% wouldn't trouble me a lot but thanks for the advice.
