Used t420 or x220. Both in and around $200. Stop being a gaymer.

Alienware

For steam and emulation, either this or a g3258+gpu.

I'd go with the a8 though just because it's cheaper and will be as powerful as a g3258+gtx 740 for half the cost.

This is one of the few times I'd recommend it, but a Pentium G3258 and a cheap h81 motherboard that can OC it. Then just slap in a cheap/decent GPU you picked up used and go to town. Emulators rely on single-threaded performance, so the G3258 is cheap and ideally suited for this task. Anything else and the X4 860k would be better.

>>53815440
Are you retarded? Why get the APU if you're going to pair it with a dedicated GPU?
>>
>>53815555
It's only like $20 more than an 860k and you get to have a backup GPU. Also you can play vydia on medium 720p settings while you wait to save up for a GPU.

Make sure you install GNU/Linux and not the product which you posted.
