I would suggest you get a better GPU now and upgrade that CPU later down the road.



Can u tell us which country and city you live in so we can help u choose the components.

Depending on what games your playing 4GB might not be enough but you could probably get past.

Ok so your CPU is fine. If you want to upgrade your CPU then you will have to get a new motherboard. Meanwhile I selected some components that you should upgrade:


Video Card: MSI Radeon R9 270x http://www.komplett.ie/product/zkb-01com/20213604/msi-radeon-r9-270x-gaming-2g-pci-e/details.aspx


Ram : ( I suggest you buy 2 sets of this ram so it equals 8gb. i couldnt find any corsair ram so you cant use your ram and couple it with this one )
Crucial 4gb http://www.komplett.ie/product/zkb-01com/20187449/crucial-4gb-pc3-12800-dimm/details.aspx


Total Price: 214.40 euros.



P.S : I suggest you upgrade your cpu as soon as you can as it will affect your gaming perfomance.

Not bad, If you can afford it I would recommend Intel, they usually outperform AMD chips.

Here's one to look at:

sorry man but im an AMD fan lol thanks for the help man before you go wha would you reccomend for a cpu cooler better than the TX3 EVO

Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO:

Nice, cheap, good quality cooler

Since your an AMD fan:

Look at the Sapphire Tri-X and the ASUS. They are great GPUs for the price. A really good future upgrade.

Yeah its a very good CPU. Nice choice. But if u buy this cpu, you will have to compensate on your gpu. IF you plan to buy this cpu, then, considering your budget, this card is your best bet:

ASUS Radeon R7250X-1GD5 - 1GB - PCI-E http://www.komplett.ie/product/zkb-01com/20247092/asus-radeon-r7250x-1gd5-1gb-pci-e/details.aspx






However, I suggest this:

CPU : http://www.komplett.ie/product/zkb-01com/20206020/amd-a-series-a8-6600k-3-9ghz-socket-fm2/details.aspx


Video Card : http://www.komplett.ie/product/zkb-01com/20249038/asus-radeon-r7265-dc2-2gd5-2gb-pci-e/details.aspx



OR if u can afford this:


Video Card : http://www.komplett.ie/product/zkb-01com/20222387/msi-radeon-r9-270-gaming-2gb-pci-e/details.aspx
