I like the system but i was thinking of and APU to start so i can get a GPU down the road. Is there and APU you could recommend
You cant crossfire that hd7770 with your APU (you need a hd 6670) so that makes the apu set up pointless as your just useing the apu as a cpu (and its not a very good one as just a cpu)
Day-z is very demanding on the cpu as well as the gpu a FX6300 and a 650 ti boost will handle well in that game and bf3 will make use of more cores...its a better way to go
