That build doesn't make a lot of sense. You would be better off getting a FX CPU, and a smaller power supply (Unless going Crossfire) since one R9 280x only needs around a 500w PSU. Also for that budget PC you should try fitting in a SSD.

I'd suggest to consider going with Intel, any AMD CPU will bottlenetk that GPU even if OCed, Intel ones will give you more and even more once OCed as well by a significant margin.

the thing is im new to all this i have built the system now but could i just take out the amd cpu and put a intel one in it. cheers

No, Intel and AMD chips are not interchangeable. You have to match the CPU socket to the motherboard socket. You've locked yourself into the low-end AMD FM2+ chipset that only supports APU chips like yours and Athlon chips. If you want to upgrade to a CPU that has good gaming performance you will also need to upgrade the motherboard.

I'm glad you're happy with the system. This will need to be your last thread on the topic. I have noted that you have made multiple threads for the same thing in different sections of the forum. Any additional threads on this topic will be deleted.

 

[michaelwebb]
