So 2 weeks ago I got my first build, i have amd fx-4300 with a amd radeon r9 240. a decedent CPU with a mediocre GPU. so i was looking for a build that can play most games at 1080p with 60+ FPS. So I've been looking and only been finding monster builds with overkill CPU's and GPU's. is this what's required? Im trying to only go AMD since its a lot cheaper and more bang for my buck. so if you have any suggestions or links please leave them in a comment. much appreciated, thanks for taking the time to read this. Game on.
If you're just looking to get better gaming performance you could look at upgrading to a R9 270, that will get you 60 fps on high settings for most games and will only cost you a little over $100.
