AMD Athlon II X4 750k with R7 260X 2GB

Hello!

I'm building a budged AMD based gaming PC, i'm wandering if AMD Athlon X4 750k will be a good CPU for Sapphire R7 260X 2GB ?

I'm getting a bit off topic asking if this build would be good

CPU: Intel i3 4150

Motherboard: Gigabyte LGA1150 GA-H81M-S1

Video card: Sapphire R7 260X 2Gb

RAM: Kingston HyperX FURY 1333Mhz 4x2Gb

PSU: Corsair CX500 500W

I would make these changes. The motherboard has multicore enhancement, which will come in handy should you upgrade to an i5/i7/E3 Xeon. (I would upgrade to an E3 1231v3, when funds allow). This allows all cores to run at their max turbo speed. DDR3 1600 is priced the same as many 1333 kits. The 600b is only $7 more than the 500b, currently. $7 is worth the extra wattage headroom for future upgrades. 😀
