Buying a new gaming computer.

[thaneshsekaran]

Hi guys, I'm looking to get myself a new gaming pc and after some research, I got a build that is within my budget, which is around $500. The build is as follows:

CPU: AMD Quad Core A8 5600K 3.9 GHz/4.1 Turbo Processor
Motherboard: AMD A55 Chipset inside all in one motherboard
Memory(RAM): 8GB DDR3 Premium system memory
Hard Drive: 1TB SATA3 7200rpm
Graphics display: Integrated Radeon HD8570D
PSU: Quiet 500W with cooling fan
This build came up to $479.

OR

CPU: AMD Quad Core A8 5600K 3.6 GHz/ 3.9GHz max turbo
Motherboard: AMD A75 or A88x Chipset motherboard
Memory(RAM): 8GB DDR3 PC-12800(1600MHz) 240pin
Hard Drive: 1TB SATA3 7200rpm
Graphics display: Integrated Radeon HD7560D
PSU: AMD original cooling fan with heatsink
This build came up to $499.

I need some opinions as I'm not a heavy gamer. Please have a look and let me know if I'm making a mistake getting it or if its worth getting. Thanks

I believe the A10 5800k is only about $10 more and it has a better iGPU

Can you get this?
