Gaming CPU AMD

[marney712]

Hello,
I would like to ask regarding build a low budget but performer AMD cpu.

These are my specs.
Processor - AMD FM2 A8-5600k (3.6 Ghz)
MOBO - Asus M5A78L-M LX VSL DDR3/PCIE
VGA - 1GB ATI Radeon 6570 DDR3 128bit

I need your suggestion regarding VGA if its good for my processor.

Thank you.

it's not a bad GPU, but it's not a great one either, what are you intending use this machine for primarily?

Im using it for internet browsing specialy facebook and slight gaming like DOTA2, Call of Duty Modern Warfare.. .
Or it is ok to use 2g NVidea Gforce 630 128bit ?

If you're going to put a discrete card in, you probably should go some other route CPU wise. The Athlon processors that just came out are the A series without the iGPU, so the clocks are higher. Or a lower end FX CPU would be even better.

If your going to get a dedicated GPU there is no need for you to buy an APU. You will get better performance going with a stand alone CPU like the FX-4100 and up.

We are not saying because you have a GPU you don't need a good CPU, we are saying that you would be better off getting a CPU that would fit better with your GPU. The current CPU you have selected is actually an APU which has a section dedicated for graphics. This is good if you don't want to buy a separate GPU but since you are it will provide less performance CPU wise than a CPU which does not have that dedicate section for graphics.

Get something like this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113287 and a motherboard to go along with it.

That board is not compatible with that APU. You need a FM2 A55 or A75 or A85 chipset MB, your board chosen is an AM3+ socket. You need a different MB.
