I am an it student and a pc enthusiast and i would much appreciate your help on my quest for upgrading my build. I saved around 650 euros(~700usd) to spend to this upgrade. My current build is an ancient nvidia gforce 8500gt, amd athlon 64 x2 5600+ with 6gb of ram. I recently added a samsung evo 840 ssd and a corsair tx650 power supply which i will keep. Now i have settled for the gpu it will be a sapphire radeon r9 280x. I was considering for a cpu an fx8320 BUT here is my 1st point of thought. I would love to use the corsair 380t(yellow ) which is a mini itx and sadly there is no amd mobo in that form factor. So would you recommend sticking to the cpu () or opting for an i5 4570-90? i have compiled a list wich i would love for you to see and giving me your opinion http://pcpartpicker.com/p/67PcvK
I forgot the usage would be moderate gaming (lol, hearthstone) kodi for watching movies, web browsing, mp3 editing in audacity, and android/java programming.
No peripherals needed just case mobo cpu gpu ram and cooler.
