So I finally build my own computer
Heres the thing though, I had very very little money to do it so I ended up going with the down right cheapest parts I could find. I found that I could get a better deal if I went with AMD so I got this motherboard http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813186189 and I put this CPU in http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103904 .
This was my first build so I did a few things kinda wrong. The first "mistake" I made was I searched for a motherboard with an embedded graphics chip on it (I had no clue intel CPU had one in them) the only one I could find was that cheap Foxconn board I linked above. I atleast knew that it was an AMD board and I would need an AMD CPU so I bought the CPU I linked above, it looked good and the specs where pretty good.
Know the think is when I look to upgrade I feel kind of stuck in the whole AMD family of stuff, this didn't concern me until I looked up the bulldozer series (I was not impressed when I saw that AMD's best was getting pwned by intel). I now have 2 options I could upgrade my MOBO and CPU to intel, with this MOBO http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813186225 and this Cpu http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116397 or for about the same price get a real graphics card (I'm using the one on my current MOBO atm) like this one http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130625
Basically would it be in my best interest to switch to Intel or get the graphics card?
