I have a case, multiple fans and heatsinks if need be. So forums, is this a decent build? Or should I get a newer GPU?

[Champion]

its decent, i'd say yes
but you need a newer gpu

[PurpleSir]

neds a bettre psu

[Steve5451²]

The GPU is worse than newer integrated chips.

u srs

The GPU is worse than newer integrated chips.

apparently, when i used it with a quad-core, i got nearly high settings in bf3

[PurpleSir]

but on a serious note, i agree that you should invest in a new GPU.

[Headcrab Zombie]

why do you have such a high watt psu
you're not using anywhere near that amount

got it for free and its the only one i have that can actually supply these parts with power. my current computer is a prebuilt piece of stuff using a motherboard that was built for a laptop.

ill look into a new GPU.

would it be better to switch to intel processors and motherboards?

Why do people keep choosing FX 6XXX/8XXX CPU's when all they'll be using them for is gaming? And older ones at that. If you're gonna be gaming just get an FX 4350 or an i5 4670/4690 if you've got the money for it, you don't need a hexa/octa-core CPU and if you actually did need one then you sure as hell wouldn't get an FX-series CPU

dude the processor is cheap as hell for that many cores. that's a damn good deal.
cheaper than most quad-cores i might add. also it has AM3+ socket type and I want a decent graphics card.

[Tokthree]

But those cores will literally do nothing at all. Just because you have a lot of cores doesn't mean your PC will be faster than a CPU with fewer cores and a higher clock speed and it definitely won't be faster than one which has fewer cores, higher clock speeds and better architecture. If the applications you're running don't support more than one or two processor cores then the rest will be used for absolutely nothing besides maybe the OS (don't remember if Win7 and below has multicore utilization or not)

again, its cheaper than most quad=cores i've found but i have to ditch this processor due to its socket type.

here i found new products i could possibly buy

would these work together? this is my first buid btw

Save up a bit and get these; http://pcpartpicker.com/user/Tokthree/saved/Jp9wrH

I'm not too good at the low-end these days so if anyone wants to tweak this then go ahead
