This. Only children and retards play video games over the age of 18.

A10 7890k instead.

>>55535371
How about this?

>>
>>55535525
But isn't the A10-7890K much weaker than the R7 360
>>
>>55535452
What about games below the age of 18?
>>
>>55535547
Yeah but the cpu is better, ram is faster(which makes a difference since its almost double the frequency and dual channel), SSD is twice as large, and you can oc cpu and gpu since it comes with the wrath coolet
>>
CPU, case and RAM could be bought used with no problems and you'd basically cut half or even more on the price on those components.
>>
>>55535575
I watched a comparison vid.

R7 360 got 30 fps.

7890K got 10 fps.
>>
>>55535613
Ram speed?
Because it matters with an apu
>>
>>55535613
>10fps
For what? GTAv 1440p?

The question should, can we do worse?
>>
>>55535587
Oh and to add, buy 8gigs of RAM for the money saved. 4gigs is not enough for gayming.

>buying a $300 pc planning to play modern games
Just buy a fucking console you fucking child.

Also, I'm pretty sure they paired the r7 360 with a fucking i7 in the benchmark, so you will never get those frame rates with a fucking Athlon

The ram in my link is 2400mhz, the ram in this video is 2133mhz.

With 2400mhz you should get ~3fps more

>APU
LOL, AMD shill is trying hard. I don't even know why considering the other is an AMD+AMD build. Maybe he was told they were losing money on those sales.
>>
>>55535371
Yes, you could save the 300 bucks instead of wasting the cash on some stupid, underpowered shit without upgradeability to play children's games.
>>
OP, check your craigslist for 7850's/7870's R9 265/270/270X and see if you can find one under $100. That will do even better than the 360. (a 370 is a rebranded 7850. The 265 was a rebranded 7850 as well. 270/X are 7870's.)

Fuck off. The APU is better value, it's more of an all rounder and he won't be stuck on a laptop architecture for his gaming pc.
>>
Not bad, should probably buy a 320 or 500gb hdd though. Save the ssd for later.
>>
>>55535371
just buy APU at this point.
>>
Evga psu's and they have great warranty
