Hello guys,

I would like to buy parts to build my first PC and since I'm a complete noob I'd like some advice on it :

I plan to be mostly gaming with this. Will there be any major bottleneck? Should I go for Intel CPUs?

Keep in mind that I cannot add more than 50€ to this build.

Thanks in advance bois.

the fx line of processors are way too much for the performance and upgrade path you get from them go with an i3 6100 or if you want more value for money go with a used i7 2600k and a socket 1155 motherboard, also get a psu with a higher wattage like a 550w for some upgrade space but the other parts you've chosen would work well in most systems.
Since we dont know ur budget, its hard to tell how much we can better.
But I wouldnt go AMD CPUs for now, you will be better off even with a i3 from intel in terms of cpu performance.
Something you can do for gaming just a bit over 500$ but includes SSD and HDD:

My budget can go higher than $500, I can go like $700.
In CPU benchmark websites the Intel i3s are way below the FX-8350 and not only that but they are expensive compared to AMD. I never got a solid reason on why Intel over AMD, where's the bad reputation coming from?

Thanks.
