Hey guys, I've been out of the PC gaming loop for a while, looking to get back into it. Need some advice on this build. I'll be playing 90% of the time on 720p 43" Plasma with a controller. Budget: 450 max. I'd like it to be able to run future games at decent settings and not have to upgrade for awhile.
if you're willing to spend a bit more i would suggest getting a GTX 650 Ti and a 7200 RPM hard drive but this will be a great little gaming rig, especially at 720P
The best solution would be to get the fx 6300 with a tx3 cooler from coolermaster and overclock it a little and change the motherboard to the MSI 970A g46 and do the 650ti. If the 650ti is too much still get the tx3 and the motherboard its worth it. Your build looks very good but if you can spend the little extra it will be worth it later for performace.
