As I have noticed a few topics in this area I wanted to get answers closer to what I was looking to do.

So I am looking to stream myself gaming, I need to upgrade my PC... but I am trying to budget build. I would like it to not worry about upgrading for at least 4 years. If it matters I play all kinds of games. My main game is BF3 going into BF4.

I would like to pay much less then $300, but am keeping a open mind. Thanks!

are you needing a motherboard and a processor? or just a motherboard?
what motherboard do you have now?
and do you have a decent graphics card?
how much ram do you have in your computer?

The "AMD FX 8350" would be the perfect solution for you! If you'd like to spend slightly less money, go with the "AMD FX 8320." I hope you're not trying to build a PC with $300 though... that's not gonna get you far. I'd reccommend a minimum of a HD 7790 or GTX 650 Ti GPU for gaming, and a HD 7870 XT or GTX 660 Ti for live stream gaming. Live streaming is pretty hefty on the system.

I need CPU and MB. I dont feel like looking up my MB but I got basically the best CPU for it almost. amd 995 or something like that.. GPU is only a 460se which lets me run BF3 in high settings but I run most in low.

for a MB and CPU I am wanting to spend 250-450
Ram I wanna pay less then 100
GPU I wanna pay less then 300

But all I am worried about now is CPU/MB

I plan to upgrade GPU but thats not what I am seeking info for at the moment. PSU should be good at 730w HDDs should be fine. I only have 8gb ddr3. Wouldnt mind 16gb+


But over all I am not picky, I just want something that will let me game high end games ( BF3/BF4) and stream and that will last 4-5+ years
