Isn't this alot better? I mean, R9 280 vs GTX 750 Ti... Big difference!

[i7Baby]

Need another $100 for a R9 280

??? I don't get it, the build with R9 280 costs just close to $500, which he said he will spend $500...

What's your current PSU and case?

 

[i7Baby]

Your PartPicker wasn't there. I think the 990fx is better.

 

[Rookie_MIB]

FX-6300 AMD processor - $120
Gigabyte GA-970A-D3P mobo - $80
Gigabyte Radeon R9-280 GPU GV-R928WF3OC-3GD - $230
Crucial Ballistix 8Gb (2x4Gb) DDR3 1600 CAS 9 memory BLS2K4G3D1609ES2LX0 - $75.00

Total: $505.00 at Newegg, better prices could probably be found with careful shopping.

Your PartPicker wasn't there. I think the 990fx is better.

Why? Haha, even with extreme overclocking, it won't get to the same performance as with the R9 280.

 

[AMDRadeonHD]

And you can overclock with the R9 280 build, I'm sure you can overclock the FX 6300 atleast at 4.0GHz even with a stock cooler on ASUS M5A97 R2.0 (Unless he has a crappy PSU, Like Corsair CS, RM, CX,VS series). If he has atleast a XFX Pro/Core Edition/TS/ 550W then he's fine. Seasonic even better, S/M12II 520/620 and so on. Corsair AX/HX/TX are the only good ones I know from my experience.

I have a better question what are you actually going to be using this for? Usually the most important information to provide aside from a budget!

 

[spat55]

Slightly over budget but will last you along time.

Hense why I said slightly over budget, if he is going to buy a upgrade he might aswell get something worth upgrading to, if he spends $500 now and in 2 years needs to upgrade or $600 now and upgrades in 4 years which is the most cost effective?
