Building a gaming pc!

hm i really prefer using AMD with ATI graphics card and Intel with Nvidia ... anyways this shouldn't be bad

lol yeah , get mbo

wheres the motherboard lol

You need a motherboard and you need a better graphics card if you are going to be into games like Battlefield 3

I recommend you Intel processor.

Depending on the motherboard you end up choosing, I'd recommend a higher end graphics card such as the Radeon 6870 or a GTX 560. Be sure to purchase a power supply at no less than 550W. 8GB of RAM would also be a reasonable choice.

No need for 2133MHz memory and for a little bit more money you can get 8GB 1600MHz memory.
For PSU i recommend XFX 450W and MB GA-970A-UD3.

try google ":D

I'd recommend Intel Core i3 2120 [103 euross] or Pentium G860 [74 euros]. Intel owns AMD also that AMD processor came out in 2009 very old. Plus I would not mix AMD CPU with nVIDIA GPU. If your going with AMD CPU get an AMD card since AMD makes both they work better together. AMD 6870 is the card with the most bang for the buck for AMD. But if your using a AMD CPU you should definitely buy an AMD GPU. A processor with 2 core and 4 threads is enought for gaming on a budget link http://www.techspot.com/review/379-crysis-2-performance/page8.html

Core i3-2120 Boxed 104€ OR Phenom II X4 965 Boxed 88€
ASRock H67M-GE 67€ (Intel MB) OR ASRock 970 Extreme3 (AMD MB)
4GB Corsair 1333MHz CL9 21€
AMD HD 6870 142€

If you are on a budget, I owuld suggest going with this:

List

This would give you better performance in the video card and chose a CPU with a better upgrade path. I choose a good budget case as well as a reliable and relatively cheap PSU that is fine for what you need.

Feel free to PM me on steam or w/e if you have questions. I'll be happy to answer any.

For a power supply go with a corsair cx600,works nicely in my machine

I would recommend a different graphics card. The nvidia 560 Ti, is a card that can run almost all games and will run higher settings and probably last longer.
I would also recommend the phenom x6 instead or even upgrading to the bulldozer range:
These two processors are really good:

AMD Bulldozer FX-4100

AMD Bulldozer FX-6100

This is a amazing motherboard for the price:

EDIT: I would recommend this RAM : RAM

With just the PSU, he can build a nice rig for about 500$ then.

Gaming PCs suck buy a Wii.

Mines better.

i have almost the same computer :D dont cheap out on the mobo try to get a 70-100$ mobo

I have just recently ordered my own parts.. Makes me sad you got so low budget, no offense. I highly recommend checking the pcpartpicker.com in where tr4656s list is from, for there you automatically see if parts are compatible. It helped me a LOT.

go for 8 GB memery and you will notice that there is not so much lag spikes and if can get intel cpu because they are better for playing games

Now I recommend checking some customer reviews, benchmarks and such things for your parts :P

so you're going to " pay " for windows? Pirates will not get that ^^

Holy, this thread is filled with incorrect information.

I think the most important piece of information that no one has posted yet is the fact that your original CPU would not work in the motherboard you had chose. They are the same socket, but your motherboard only supports chips up to 95w where the x4 955 BE is 125w. If anyone here knew anything about computers, you think that would have been brought up.

CPU Support

As for the AMD+ATI benefit, that's only if you're using a good chipset (not the 760g) and if you had a lowpowered GPU which if you want to game, you most likely won't. As for Intel and nVidia there's absolutely nothing unlike some have stated.

Personally, you're shooting yourself in the leg by going AMD though, they flopped with their newest socket and Intel is running away again.

You'd be so much better off getting a H61 LGA1155 motherboard and an i3 2100 instead. It'd be real close in price, no performance loss and the huge benefit is the fact i3 2100 is one of the slowest CPUs on LGA115 (yet still as fast as the fastest on AM3) so you only have room to upgrade. Where as you'd have to buy a whole new motherboard and CPU to gain anything over the AMD setup.

I looked at your list and made a modified version here.

My main changes were the ram, CPU/mobo, and the PSU.

The CPU change is because of a performance gain that can be seen by this Anantech comparison.

RAM is because G.Skill ram are low profile and 2x2GB runs better on Intel over 1 dimm. For the PSU, the XFX 450w will deliver ~as much power as the corsair CX500w on the 12v rail which is what you need. Also, the XFX uses a seasonic OEM which is more reliable than the CWT the Corsair uses.

According to your part picker, get rid of the athlon, stick with the Phenom 955 if you're going AMD. Your mobo is a cheap barebones one with limited support, this one should suit you well. Also, if you're set on only 4gb of ram, get a kit of 2x2gb of ram so you benefit from dual channel instead of the 1 stick of 4gb that you have. And don't skimp on the mobo, and has 4 ram slots so you won't fill up the only ones you'd have with that first mobo you had with the 2x2gb kit. Other than that, looks solid.
