Had to open up a New thread because I'm so bad at this(also the first one I created was an intel based CPU which I realized my budget won't suffice in creating such). So it's my first time building a Gaming Rig. And I'm on a super tight budget of $600 all in,including monitor and other peripherals. By my definition all means as in all the cpu,monitor,mice and keyboard except maybe the OS im'ma pirate that LOL.

So here's what I have built so far and its already at my $600 budget and still missing some components. I need help guys!


AMD FX-6300 ₱5,400.00

MSI FM2-A75MA-P33/MSI 880GMS-E41 FX ₱2,850.00
(need advice on which one is better)

GSKILL RIPJAWSX 4GBX2 1600MHZ (F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL) ₱3,250.00

WESTERN DIGITAL 1TB BLUE 3.5" SATA (WD10EZEX) ₱2,995.00

ASUS (HD7770-DC-1GD5-V2) ₱5,950.00

SEASONIC S12II-520 520W 80+BRONZE ₱2,950.00

bear in mind that I still don't have my monitor,mice,keyboard and avr and the heat sink and even the case. And if we get the guesstimated amount of the listed items above theyre already almost at my $600 budget.

Any Suggestions that will save me more money but will be more efficient or save me some money but with equal specs as listed above.

I greatly appreciate all your help guys!

Date of Purchase would probably within sept 2013 which is tom here in the Philippines! Thanks in advance!

the motherboard wont work with the cpu. you need an am3+ board, not a fm2
