why that board and cpu? surley if you are going AMD you want an FX Cpu and a 990fx board. that would be good for a HTC box but not all that when it comes to gamming!

I bet there are a bunch of you guys that miss the IBM Clone days? o I have built about 4000 pc's (for idiots) and given 104 away for free.  if I had the $$ right now I would go with Intel and DDR4 yea baby!

AMD Recommendation: $398

 

AMD FX-9590 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113347&cm_re=9590_fx-_-19-113-347-_-Product

 

AMD MSI AM3+ DDR3 MOBO http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130790&cm_re=AMD_MSI_AM3%2b-_-13-130-790-_-Product

 

Please note this CPU requires a water cooler. I recommend: Corsair H60 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835181030&cm_re=corsair_h60-_-35-181-030-_-Product

 

INTEL Recommendation: $450

 

i5-6600K http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819117561&cm_re=Intel_Core_i5-6600K-_-19-117-561-_-Product

 

ASUS Z170-P D3 LGA1151 DDR3 MOBO http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813132572

 

Please note this CPU does not come with a CPU Cooler. I recommend the same CPU cooler I mentioned for AMD.

 

I have the Corsair H60 cooler for my i7-3820 and it never goes over 50C while gaming This is not a full load temp.

 

I will be honest and say go for the intel setup because I feel that intel just performs better.

Here is a video on why the 6600K is better than AMD.

I do not recommend anything higher than the i5 and here is why I do not tell anyone to buy an i7 for a gaming rig.

 

 

I personally have an i7-3820 3.6GHz CPU but that's just me. I just prefer to have an i7 although some i5 and i7 CPUs have very close FPS differences I still personally pick i7 over i5.
