I would not recommend an AMD rig, at this time. Those FX chips are over 3yrs old, on a dead platform.

can you recommend an amd rig because intel is out of my reach at this time

 

[logainofhades]

How is Intel out of reach? I have you a better system, within the budget?

sorry about that, i had a false image in my mind check this out
i5 6500
EVGA GeForce GTX960 4GB
HyperX Fury Black 16GB DDR4-2133MHz
MSI B150 Gaming M3 mobo
Corsair VS Series VS650 80Plus
CoolerMaster K350 (Window)

could you please suggest a cpu air cooler

 

[logainofhades]

Not a good PSU choice. Stick with tier 1 and 2 units. http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-2547993/psu-tier-list.html

The R9 380 4gb is a bit faster than the 960, except in games that heavily favor Nvidia. Whichever is cheaper is fine, though.

Do not really need a cooler, for the 6500, but Cryorig H7 is a great cooler, and the M9i isn't bad either. Deepcool Gammaxx 400 is a nice inexpensive cooler too.

What about the cx750m corsair psu?
If it is not a good one could you suggest one?

 

[logainofhades]

That is not a good unit either. Tier 1 or 2, from that list are your best bets. Availability is not the same everywhere, so recommending a particular unit is not always easy. My typical recommendation, though, is Evga B2 750. For the money, they are tough to beat.

The B2750 is very expensive for me at this time. If you have any non modular PSUs below 100$ I'd be pleased to hear them

what about this psu
Antec High Current Gamer 620

 

[logainofhades]

That PSU will work, just fine. It is a good unit.

i was also thinking about this
EVGA SuperNOVA 650 GQ

 

[logainofhades]

I believe there was a discussion, in the PSU tier thread, and it was decided that one is probably tier 2 quality, so that one should be fine too.

sorry for asking again.could you tell me if this psu is fine?
XFX ProSeries 850W XXX Edition Semi-Modular

 

[logainofhades]

Yes
