New pc build

[Jabardast aadmi]

Just wanted to know the best combination for gaming rig
Intel+nvidia
Or
Amd+amd

Depends mainly on your budget, what is your budget and I will build a PC for you.

This doesn't matter and is irrelevant. Processor power is seperate, so is graphics power. Each are not meant to combine for better compability.

It really depends on your needs, but generally there's no real difference in performance either way. You can "mix and match" Intel/AMD, AMD/nVidia with no difference. The setup is the sum of the parts, and I don't believe it can be categorically stated that a certain combination is 'better' overall.

For gaming, the AMD vs Intel CPU debate can be found all over this site. For GPUs, generally speaking any nVidia GPU has a comparable AMD counterpart - although AMDs GPU offerings tend to be more power-hungry.

An i5 is the 'go to' for Gaming builds, but depending on your uses, AMD have some offerings that will do the job well, and are likely cheaper. GPUs from either will work well, but there are some differences, such as technologies (G-Sync or Free-Sync) that are limited to either nVidia or AMD.

It makes no difference. They are compatible with each other.

I already have i3 4130 and 750ti
With 8gbram
But wanted to make another pcwhich is at par ot maybe better
But not to expensive
Something with gtx960which does not get bottleneck

Based on that information, you could build an AMD version that's roughly on part with an 860k and an R7 265 or R7 270.
But why would you?

As far as 'better', you just step up each component.
A better GPU is easily measurable. A 'better' CPU depends on what you use it for.
For gaming, an i5 is generally better than an i3 (with it's 'true' 4 cores), an i7 (4core + HT) and a Xeon (4/6core + HT) are usually overkill.

AMD has 4, 6 & 8 core options, but their single core performance doesn't always stack up well in gaming. Considering the majority of games don't take advantage of any more than 2 cores, having a 6 or 8 core not running as efficiently as a quad-core i5 doesn't make too much sense.

They're all viable options, but it boils down to power/heat/efficiency vs price. Generally an AMD chip is cheaper and decent enough in budget builds.

GPU improvements are easily quantifiable.
A GTX 950 2GB performs better than the 750ti, and north from there.
An R9 270x and up from the AMD standpoint will outperform your 750ti.

8GB RAM is more than enough today. You could always increase it to 16GB, but for gaming it would be a waste of money.
