Get 2x4GB instead of 16 GB, use saved $ on better cpu.

I want to learn the ways of building my own pro gaming computer on a $500 budget from youTube.

you won't need 16gb of ram 8gb will be enough

how about you fucking take your build convert it to a pcpartpicker build list and ask about your build on https:// www reddit com/r/buildapc

they will help you, this place is only for telling people to install the worst fuckign os in the world, gentoo

This. Have fun playing unoptimized games

>>54513593
Buy a 1 TB WD blue HDD instead, 8gigs of ram, buy an FX 6300, and a compatible mother board. At that price range for GPU an r9 380 is excellent.
Should be comfy for med-high on demanding titles.

He already went 500$ in the build he showed us, might as well go over and get a better CPU since the 6300 is kinda shit now

wait for polaris 11
should give you 390 performance for $200

Buy a AMD Athlon X4 845 instead. Better performance for less pesos.

Yes, it's fucking shit.

Just buy a fucking i3 instead of this piece of shit.
It's faster and far, far more efficient while costing you like 25$ more.

>hurr never wait, always buy now!
legitimately, fuck you. Polaris 11 will be out in a fucking MONTH. It will be a die shrink and an architectural update. Anyone who bought a gpu in the last 6 months and wasn't waiting for Pascal for high end or Polaris for low end is completely stupid. they through their money right in the trash
>>
If you're a poorfag, just buy used off of craigslist.

Get a i5 / i7 anything that was custom built, don't spend more than $250, and then slap in 8GB of DDR3 and a new video card and you're solid.
>>
>>54513593
I have an Athlon 750k OCed to 4.4ghz and it still bottle necked a 970.

Trust me when I say It will seem like its a decent performer until you compare it to systems with similar gpu but with more powerful cpus in games.
>>
>>54514472
forgot to add, get an fx6300 or 8320e

find em on ebay for 60-90$

this

I have an 8350 and I can't recommend this cpu, let alone any less powerful one, at all.

If you buy an AMD cpu that means when you want to upgrade you'll have to get a new mobo too. that's pretty fucking lame

for a budget machine, that you plan on keeping and upgrading, I'd recommend whatever $60 pentium you can get with a decent cooler and a mobo to overclock it. That way, down the line, you could even upgrade to an i5 or i7 and have an almost brand new computer just by changing one component

Also here you can see that AMD's 8350 with 8 cores 4.2GHz is as fast as a fucking i3 of the last generation with two fucking cores at 3.5GHz

Not to mention the TDP is almost a third of the 8350...

>>54514689
you do realize there are plenty of benchmarks where the fx-8350 wins right?

mainly when it comes to encoding etc

i3 stronk as fuck. still costs a bit more than the FX-8300 though.

Poor amd cucks

For the love of god do not get an athlon X4. I had one like 4 years ago and that thing could barely handle games at the time. It's probably like a 6 year old CPU at this point. It's going to severely bottleneck your games and probably won't even be able to run new games at all. Get an i3 and a decent Intel motherboard and then upgrade to an i5 later when you have more money. An i3 outperforms the athlon x4 in probably everything for not much more money. Trust me you will thank me in the long run.
