Okay so I am going to have some extra parts after I take apart my moms Hackintosh I built about a year back (she wants to get a new Mac Pro) and put the parts toward a mini ITX build for myself. I'll probably just use the computer for when I go to a friends to hang out I can just pick it up and go. or have a friend use it if I ever have them over, anyway, what do you think of the build?
The most i'll use the build for is ArmA III, if I can even play on that SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 6870 2GB 256-bit GDDR5.

Lmao I get 120 with a 770 and an fx 8320

are you running at ultra settings at 1080 resolution

[Cut Glass]

Um. Everywhere I click turns black, and also when I drag my mouse on the desktop this happens.

So I'm thinking about upgrading my graphics card from an Nvidia 610 to something else. I don't know that much about computers so I really wouldn't know what to get. I don't need it to run Battlefield 4 at 120 FPS but I would like something decent.

Any suggestions? If it helps I have a $200 budget.

Does it happen when you boot in safe mode?

Like I said I don't know much about computers. But here's what I could find.

GA-78LMT-S2 Motherboard

Not sure where to find everything else.

control panel -> system and security -> system
type in what processor you have

[CreamTurk3y]

From the looks of it, I have a  AMD FX(tm)-6300 Six-Core Processor 3.50 GHz

[Omicron Corp]

oh ok
i was just wondering like, in case you had a horribly underpowered cpu, you might've wanted to upgrade that first
but the fx-6300 is fine
a GTX 660 might suit you
if you can spend 20 dollars more, you could get the R9 270, which would bring you major improvements over the 660
