I've got $400 to spend on a CPU, GPU, and mobo, currently I have an Athlon II X4 645, a Radeon 6870, and a shitty Foxconn board of an HP desktop. What would be the best combo to stay within that range?
Right now this is what I'm looking at but I was told by some people to hold out for for the Ryzen chips because the FX series is a meme and to get a 1060 instead, but I think that might be a bit too much pricewise.
>>
If you're getting FX get the 8320 or 8320E, if you're going cheap

IF your willing to go used you might be able to get away with a used LGA 1155 i7 and motherboard for the money your spending on that AM3 board and fx cpu

Don't bother with that ancient cpu https://pcpartpicker.com/list/2PGFpb

>>59490117
How did you get an i7 3770 for cheap? They're still $300 or so one while i7 2600k is like $200.

Do not get AM3 at all op
>>
>>59490143
Nigga look on eBay i7 2600s are going for $100-150, 3770s are going for about $200 and under

Is a mobo like that necessary? Yeah it's MSI and they make great stuff but I feel like that's $15 more than it should be just because it's got "gaming" in the name and some red paint.

Pic is cheapest i7 2600s in the US

>>59490246
If you add the K the prices will probably go up a lot

>>59490224
VRM and chipset quality is of upmost importance when making a new build.
unless you don't plan on overclocking, which case buy wahtever is cheapest

Eh, not too bad still around $150 for some of the cheaper ones. I wouldn't buy a unlocked CPU from eBay anyway, no idea how hard of a life its had.
>>
>>59490291
I bought my I5 6500 for 138. More than enough for OP
>>
>>59490265
I just plan on gaming and light video editing, so I don't think I'm going to overclock

you retarded. wait for R3.
>>
>>59490074
buy an old i7 2600k system for $200 and add a GPU to that
>>
>>59490074
holy shit why would you pay $150 for a 1050Ti when you can get a RX480 for that price?
Is this Canadian dollars or trolling?

And why would you buy a new AM3+ motherboard? They aren't worth it.
>>
>>59490509
Why would you do that when a 1500X is largely going to be better for only $50 more, more future proofed, and like 10x performance/watt?
>>
get a g4560 it will outperform the fx 6300 easly on any application and its cheaper.
You will also get better performance from your 1050ti with it.
>>
>>59491600
1800X isn't even as fast as an overclocked i7 2600k in games rofl
>>
>>59490074
Ryzen R5 is coming out in literally less than two weeks.

1400 will be $149, pair it with a cheap AM4 mobo and an RX470 and you set.
>>
>>59492347
for real? I thought it was coming out in the summer
