$800 and under gaming pc help.

[GalaticCat]

hey everyone, I have $800 to spend on a computer and I do not need the following:

keyboard, mouse, speakers, monitor

what I also need though is an os (preferably windows 7) and with the cpu I can't decide intel or amd, I want it to be future proof but I want it so it will run high-ultra graphics on current games (minecraft, skyrim, bf4, counter strike, day z, ect.) and I heard that intel is better at gaming but amd has more cores which would be helpful if games released more than 4 cores . please help.

so my best Bet is the amd way it looks like since its under $800. does it meet the needs I put in the description?

Yea fx 6300 is good for budget gaming and definitely good for few years. And u'll be able to play at higher settings
