I'm starting up my own Youtube channel playing video games and will be recording with an Elgato game capture HD from my PS3. One of the system requirements to record in HD is 8GB of RAM, and I already have a 700W PSU. Also, the motherboard needs an HDMI port. I'm trying to keep the cost as low as possible while having decent performance.
So essentially I need a case, CPU, motherboard, RAM and an HDD. I just can't decide on a CPU. Should I get the AMD FX-6300 which features 6 cores and might be faster for processing video files in some applications, or the Intel Core i3-4130? The i3-4130 also has better integrated graphics (HD 4400) which may be better for working with 1080P video. I also have two 320MB 8800 GTs and one 640MB 8800 GT but they've been in a box for a while and I don't know if they work. Would an APU be a better option?
