Hello Everyone,
Based on everyone's advice on the forums here, I've put together the following build:
http://pcpartpicker.com/p/rcNq
Are all of the parts compatible?
I was shooting for a $500 budget, so i'm about $80 over at $580. I know I could save by switching from the FX-6300 to the AMD Phenom II. Is it worth it to pay the extra for the FX-6300?
Also, i want to say that I went with AMD because based on everyone's feedback, AMD seems to give the best performance for a budget build. Do you guys agree?
This computer will be used for gaming and work multitasking such as Microsoft office and web browsing. I tend to have a lot of windows open.
I have the OSX already, along with monitor, mouse, keyboard, etc.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate all the advice everyone takes the time to give on these forums!
