    AMD FX-8350 CPu

    My answer to question #3 is the Cooler Master Nepton 140XL closed loop liquid cooler for $99. Even if you are not overclocking it will keep your CPU very cool, quiet, and extend the life of the CPU

    AMD FX-8350 CPu

    I will answer question #2. I am looking at building a similar rig and I have decided on the ASUS M5A99FX PRO R2.0. Best budget performance board for FX CPU's

    Which processor is better for playing games AMD Opteron 6128 2.0GHz 8-Core processor or Intel Core i7 2600

    If you're looking at a i7-2600, I'd still go AMD and purchase an AMD FX 8350 CPU.

    Which processor is better for playing games AMD Opteron 6128 2.0GHz 8-Core processor or Intel Core i7 2600

    Do yourself a favor, and save a little money by purchasing an AMD FX 4100 CPU, and an Asus M5A97 R2.0 socket AM3+ motherboard, as well as 8 GB of 1600 mhz RAM. Pair that with an AMD Radeon HD 7970 GPU, and you should be able to play any game in max settings. (1920 x 1080)

    That would be awesome.

    Looks fine to me. I hope I'll be able to DIY a PC soon.

    On a side note,(still APU related)I successfully overclocked the AMD A6-3400m APU in my Toshiba Satellite L755D-S5218 notebook from 1.4 ghz(stock) to 1.8 ghz w/ a boost of 2.3 ghz using stock voltages. That's a 25% overclock :)

    AMD A4-5300 w/ 1866 memory

    The build with the A8-5500 would be best, and it's the most future proof
