GPU - CPU - motherboard compatibility

[hooja99]

Hi
sorry if this is a stupid question,
can you experts tell me whether these are compatible before I go ahead and buy, thanks!
1. amd-fx-6300
2. asus-m5a78l-m
3. asus radeon hd 7790 2gb

YES!!
These components are compatible.
but you will need a good psu of around 550-600W.

The CPU is Supported with the BIOS Version 1003 and Later. The GPU is also compatible, you're fine

I have an update if that's ok....
If I change the GPU to a Radeon 7850 is it all still good? Is there significant difference between the OC and the standard version,
and between the Sapphire, ASUS and Gigabyte versions?
I presume I'll then get about a million fps on BF4 won't I .....
Thanks again
Update - meant to say it's the 2gb version

7850 requires high quality 450W psu minimum

HD 7850 is a very good card but according to the benchmarks , GTX 660 is slightly better than HD 7850 and both have almost same price.
But i think that if you can spend some more money then you should go for HD 7870.
Its the best budget gaming card and outperforms HD 7850 and GTX 660.
and the difference between the OC version and standard version is that the OC version has higher clock speed than standard version.
OC version is overclocked by company itself.
you don't have have to overclock it.
and which card to choose between Sapphire , ASUS and Gigabyte is upto you.

Thanks guys, we were looking at around 600-700w psu so that's good.
As the priority was BF4 that's why we're looking at AMD rather than NVidia.
Would you expect much difference on bf4 fps between the 7850 and 7870?
My son and I are building this and at some point the cost has to stop heading up

HD 7870 gives 15% better performence than HD 7850 at high resolution [ 1080p ].
