So Long story short i want to build a pc, BUT i don't require a gpu as of this moment, or possibly just a very cheap one, i want to do some minor editing and just general internet stuff such as youtube ect.
Preferably something that i won't have to upgrade for a while so don't worry about cheaping out on parts
a defined budget would be nice to know
Amd A10 APU's are pretty good GPUs, but if you dont care just go for a Intel, they're also APUs but AMD's GPU part is stronger then intel, while the CPU is weaker
I'd just pick an Intel CPU. the iGPU is decent, in that it will really restrict you for any gaming, but for web browsing it will work perfectly fine. I don't really know how it would do in editing though. Personally, assuming you do have the budget for an i5, I don't see any reason to grab an APU. While I do think APUs are great, I find them to be horrible options if you ever plan to throw in a dedicated graphics card. Sure, you'll have better performance in a lot of games before the dGPU if you have an A10, but once the dedicated GPU is installed the build that started with an i5 would perform significantly better.
But yes, a budget would be nice.
You can play any new games on a hd 4600 with medium at 1280x800.

This is an APU system that I would feel comfortable suggesting to anyone. It features the best APU currently on the market mated to the best motherboard available for that socket type. The AMD A10 7850k features four Richland cores with 8 GCN cores for a total of 512 unified shader processors, 24 raster output processors and 8 render output units. All of this is fed with 8 GB of 2133 MHz AMD DDR3 RAM, which is natively configurable to 2400 MHz, an optimal speed for use with an APU. The motherboard features, among other things, a 8+2 digi+ VRM configuration with a passive heatsink mounted to the voltage regulators. This higher number of VRMs provides smoother power delivery with higher degrees of granularity in your overclocking selection control. This motherboard also features PCI-e 3.0, for when you do decide to upgrade to a discrete GPU solution. I've included a recommendation for an aftermarket cooler. There are many such coolers of varying designs, but this one is simply the cheapest that I feel comfortable recommending (If you're okay with refurbished, consider searching on Ebay for a manufacturer refurbished Corsair Hydro Series H100, since they can be had for as little as $55 with shipping included.) I've also included a recommendation for a really inexpensive SSD, the PNY XLR8 128 GB model. The reviews for this drive are all rather positive, so I don't have any particular apprehension toward it. I've also included a standard 1 terabyte HDD, for greater storage capacity. Powering it all would be a Corsair CX 500, their builder series of power supplies. It's 80+ Bronze rated, so it will typically be more than 84% efficient. Housing it all is a case that goes unnoticed most of the time. I don't think it is the most attractive case in the world, but it isn't as hideous as most in that price range, both before and after the rebate. The brushed plastic finish provides a nice, urbane aesthetic and the clean, flat lines with minimal curves and chamfers provide intrigue. The case also features a rather large number of possible fan mounting options. It also features a window, vitally important when you spend over half a grand on a computer.
Okay, Thank you to everyone that posted and to clarify, i wouldn't want to spend more than maybe $850~
Then later when i have some more money, throwing in a $400-$500 Gpu
Just what are you planning to throw in it?
because a 770 or 280x will max out most games at 1080p
What i would get http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3P7WU
and if you could spare it http://pcpartpicker.com/part/kingston-internal-hard-drive-sh103s3120g
Isn't that motherboard a little bit overkill? Just perhaps to bring it more in line with the $850. Especially since there isn't a good cooler involved that could be used for overclocking, although admittedly one could be installed later.
possibly but if i were going to have a motherboard for a while i would get ROG because the BIOS updates and overall reliability of the ROG series. ever sience i got my maximus impact ive enjoyed it too much
Most likely a 770, possibly a 780
(i'm more of a nvidia person)
Thanks for the feedback both of you, and thanks for the build Grassyloki, ill probably end up just getting whats in the build and the ssd, i'll also probably throw in a water cooler
