Solid gaming build

[Tyler Signus]

I am building a new desktop, i have $500 to work with. I have gotten a build from my research but am looking for advice hopefully from more experienced people. Is this a good build for the money and if not what parts should i get instead and why. Also is this build compatible.
Trying to build good gaming build.
Overclocking: no


CPU AMD FX-6300
MOBO ASUS M5A78L-M/USB3
GPU EVGA GeForce GTX 750 Ti
RAM Crucial Ballistix Sport 4GB
HDD Seagate Barracuda 250 GB
CASE Rosewill Dual Fans
PSU Antec VP-450

The mb you have chosen uses an older chip set and doesnt fully support an FX processor

This is a couple of $ more than $500 but its all good

If you want the price under $500 then leave out the cpu cooler .
Personally I would leave it in . You might not want to OC now , but its very easy and safe to do using AMD's software .

Not true - I run a FX-8320 on a GA-78LMT-USB3 motherboard and it runs pretty flawlessly. 78L motherboards will handle that CPU just fine.

On a $500 budget this is what I would suggest:

The FX processors run in the older chip set boards [ obviously] but those older chip sets doesnt support all the power states of the FX processor so it wastes power and will run hotter .
And of course that ASUS board , and all others with a 760G chipset , lack strong VRM's and cooling and the hard drives are connected via SATA 300 standard meaning there is no chance of upgrading to a fast SSD .


Also a very bad idea to build a gaming pc with an intel dual core . Games are already specifying quad cores at a minimum , and the 6 core will give much better performance in online games

Uh... what? There's no proof that the chipset you run will have any affect on the CPU's heat dissipation. I would suggest checking your facts there.

Who still uses a 760G chipset? The 78L chipset runs all the latest connectivity features like USB 3.0, SATA 3GBs and SATA 6GBs, so you can in fact run a fast SSD on that motherboard. Should I post a screen cap of my CPU ID from my rig that's running a nearly identical configuration?

Also a very bad idea to build a gaming pc with an intel dual core . Games are already specifying quad cores at a minimum , and the 6 core will give much better performance in online games

Hmmm... weak six core based on a 2011 chipset vs. a strong dual core based on a 2014 chipset? I think I would take the newer cores vs. the old ones and the newer chipset vs. the older one. Plus you can always upgrade later.

 

[jimmysmitty]

^ not to mention that is an i3 so it has SMT thus 4 threads.

 

[bsod1]

what do you guys think of my Intel/AMD build above?

For under $500, I would take the 860k in order to maximize the video card options.

This is a rebate heavy build, but it's probably the best gaming PC you could get for around $450 AR



For the record, I would take the i3 over the FX6300 every time.

 

[pomps74]

I would recommend a build with an i3 as you can easily upgrade to an i5 or i7 later. This will eliminate bottlenecks caused by the cpu as Haswell is a lot better than FX architecture. Also there really is no upgrade path from the FX that will eliminate the bottlenecks. If you stick with intel you could upgrade CPU and the GPU later on without worrying about a bottleneck. Here's a good system:

You want him to put a R9 280 on a CX500 psu? Terrible recommendation.

I agree about the i3's upgrade path though.


Here is my i3 alternative if you want to spend this much.

You don't need an H97 mobo. He's fine with the B85. The 280 is not that power-hungry. I admit that the CX line is not top-tier, but this isn't a power-hungry build.

 

[CTurbo]

I can agree with the B85 being good enough, but I would NOT run a 280 on a CX500.

Fact checking is as important as language comprehension .

The newer 9XX series chip sets have a different range of power states hard wired in . They drop the cpu clocks faster , ramp it up faster and have finer grained control of the cpu's thermal output .
In simple language AMD Cool'n'Quiet is improved in the later chip sets . In a board with a 9xx chipset the processor will , on average, run cooler and use less power


Here is the specification for the mb
https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/M5A78LMUSB3/specifications/
It has 6 SATA 300 ports and ZERO SATA 600 ports .
You can in fact run an SSD on that board , but its never going to run at more than 300 Mbits/s because the SATA ports will cap the speed . So , no point in upgrading to a high performance SSD . Ever .

As for the intel vz AMD argument . The intel might win in old games that cant multithread [ though this is usually just theoretical since the AMD can usually max out the monitors refresh rate anyway ] . In DX11/12 games that use all available threads the FX 6300 is a far better choice ..

As games advance and become more demanding, any FX will not be able to play it like an Intel. You have the upgradeablility with LGA1150, remember that.

So its no more upgradeable than AM3+ from this point forward .

LGA 1150 is not dead, you can upgrade to an i5 or and i7 or Broadwell. You can not upgrade to anything better on the FX. a 4790k will beat the 9590 no matter what.

 

[Outlander_04]

LGA 1150 is dead . There wont be future processors
AM3+ is dead for the same reason

You can upgrade to an FX 8350 just the same as you could upgrade an i3 to an i7 .

In games like BF4 heres what you would see [ in single player]
http://www.techspot.com/review/734-battlefield-4-benchmarks/page6.html
1 fps for the extra money for the intel

There is broadwell. That is a future processor. But in games like GTA V heres what you would see. Read what they said about AMD CPUs vs. i3 at the end: http://www.techspot.com/review/991-gta-5-pc-benchmarks/page7.html

You do understand that monitors refresh at 60 Hz , right?
And that 60 Hz is the same thing as 60 fps ?

In the link to GTA you provided the intel i3 makes 68 fps
and the FX 6350 makes 69 fps
These are essentially the processor options for the OP right now [ the FX 6350 is a very mild OC of an FX 6300 ]
In either case the person using the PC will be seeing 60 fps on their screen so in that regard its even

But single player and multiplayer are very different . There is a lot more load in online play . The i3 doesnt have the reserves of power .

Oh and BTW that "future processor" is about 6 weeks away , and there will be no future socket 1150 processors .
Socket 1150 is dead

stop

"Sadly AMD's current FX series doesn't hold up well and the flagship parts struggle to compete with the likes of Intel's Core i3. It's shocking to find that the i3-4130 is around 20% faster than the FX-8370E in a game that heavily loads eight threads at 60% utilization or greater. The i3-4130 saw around 70-90% utilization across all its four threads." Quote from article.

You're missing the point. The i3 provides the same performance as an FX right now, but as the games become more and more demanding, the gap between the higher end FX and Intel will widen. AM3+ has been dead for a long time because AMD hasn't brought any CPU to the high end. If LGA 1150 is becoming dead, it'll be succeeded by Skylake. I'm trying to get the guy a PC that can last several generations.
