Building Gaming PC Please HELP!

[AbsoluteBuilder]

Hello hi I am building a Gaming PC for $400 please help me look at the parts/specifications below and tell me if there incompatible or compatible, For the processor I went with the AMD A10 7870k Quad Core can I game on it without using a GPU/VC? if I need anything else added I can go as high as $450 for the price. Also I could have gone with an I3 but I didn't really want that processor. Please take a look at the specs and reply back.

You should never get a Logisys PSU. They are basically bombs and will blow when you draw more current than they can handle, which is usually far less than their rated wattage. If you're going to put money into one component, make it the PSU.

you should also never got for an a10 build nowadays.
youre stuck with what you bought.

I don't think he bought it yet.

 

[superninja12]

go* sorry for the extra t
also why don't u want an i3? because people say its not made for gaming.
well an i3 paired with a good Gpu would destroy your a10.

The list you made needs to be changed completely, otherwise you will be wasting your money.

I think this would be far better for your budget. You can upgrade the CPU to an i5 / i7 later on and keep this system running for years with performance better than anything amd currently has to offer.

I wouldn't go for that gpu/cpu combo.I would either pare that cpu with a r7 250 for dualgraphics or get the Athlon 860K with a better gpu.The last option would be the best one.

Two builds that give both options,the imo best one first,

Guys I havent bought the items yet. Also I didn't mean to say I didn't want to go with an I3, its just that its a Dual Core Processor.
And I heard that you can't play games on a Dual Core you need Quad Core. Ok so Ignore that but what should I get guys what do you recommend me to get please give me a list

 

[AbsoluteBuilder]

Wait so if I get a Core I3 CPU will the gaming performance perfrom better?

Should I really go with a GTX Geforce 750Ti? I thought its not good for gaming

 

[Archaic59]

GTX 750 ti will do just fine at medium / high settings @ 1080P. The system is ultimately upgradeable for years to come. The amd parts really don't perform as well and lead to nowhere later on.

 

[Vic 40]

The r7 370 i used is cheaper and a better performer,it's power draw isn't so high so a 450watt psu will work fine with it.

 

[madmatt30]

All has been said above .

At your low budget you can either go an i3 with a lower tier GPU or a 860k with a higher tier one

Performance with one or the other will vary by game.

 

[madmatt30]

Nothing inherently wrong with the builds above , this below is based on trying to take rebates out of the equation.

It can.The i3 6100 is a dualcore cpu,but has hyper threading so can work with four threads,not the same as four real cores,but still capable and very fast.The amd's can suffer mostly at the lower fps when gaming,for that is the intel often better.

About an AMD motherboard,i would pick the one i chose,i think it has some overclock capapbilities,i chose it for that reason,you could later add an aftermarket cooler and try that.

I see remarks about rebates.Are they an option for you? Partslists vary day by day,prices drop and rise on most parts,like gpu and psu the most.Look at these as guidance.
