enderbauwens
Hye guys heres is my build so far (NOTE: I have not bought any parts yet this is just my thought)
CPU: AMD Athlon X4 760K 3.8GHz Quad-Core Processor
Motherboard: Asus A78M-E Micro ATX FM2+ Motherboard
Memory: G.Skill Value Series 8GB (1 x 8GB) DDR3-1333 Memory
Hard Drive: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Video Card: MSI GeForce GTX 750 2GB TWIN FROZR Video Card
Case: Logisys CS305BK ATX Mid Tower Case w/480W Power Supply
Ok So I'm really wondering if there are better parts out there for a cheaper price. Right now the PC costs $473.68 with the OS and I am trying to make it as cheap as it can be with still be top notch.
If you can help please reply below

I actually don't have time to explain why the PC you listed is bad. So I'll just cover the main points of why the one you listed is bad,
-Bad Case
-Extremely bad PSU (might fry your entire build)
-AMD athlon has little-to-no upgrade path (Future upgrades will require nearly the entire pc to be rebuilt)

I like those MSI TWIN FROZR video cards they look great. Also 2 sticks of 4gb DDR3 ram Is suppose to be better than 1 8gb stick (I have 2 4gb sticks).
