Don't know to much about amd processors, but id say get more ram definitely 8 gigabytes at the minimum. Do you have a budget of any kind?
[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;46461733]Change out the Corsair Power supply. They're using inferior components, get a Seasonic. You should really go with dual channel over single channel, the performance boost would be justifiable. Processor for a budget is okay. but I'd still rock a Pentium G3248.[/QUOTE] I have decided to use a Pentium G3258, I have edited the post accordingly and can you suggest a Seasonic at a similar price and one reason I am going for the corsair is because its modular, So I can keep loose cables to a minimum.
