[QUOTE=RandomGamer342;43782860]Now that we've got that guy out of the way(for now), ^this^ is probably the best build you'll get with your budget[/QUOTE] Hell no it's unbalanced and OP probably needs windows
[QUOTE=Brockster19;43789063]Hell no it's unbalanced and OP probably needs windows[/QUOTE] It's not unbalanced... pairing an i5 with a mid-range card isn't unbalanced. Here's some advice: Stop remaking accounts and stop giving advice. Please.

You're way too adamant at this, it's unhealthy.

All you seem to be doing is coming into this thread and talking shit about us doing our best to help the OP, all the while giving him false advice and disregarding the things he's asked for when he requested our help. Just face facts that you're out of your depth and leave us alone already, there's nothing you can do to recover from your stupidity and dickishness.

I'm 90% sure you're trolling at this point.

What exactly are you trying to prove with all of this?

[QUOTE=flayne;43771038]An X4 paired with a 7850 is unbalanced. The X4 is old and bad, and the 7850 is relatively new and decent. A 4570 paired with an R9 270 is not unbalanced. Their both new and both on the mid-range spectrum. But please tell me how your build is better since it has an older and slower everything. Did he ask for an OS? I see no mention of it, so he could not need one, want to use a free one, etc. And since he already has a computer there's a good chance of being able to reuse one.[/QUOTE] An X4 is a decent CPU, I don't know where you guys are getting your info. If you have a mid ranged card (which the 7850 is) the X4 and the i5 will pretty much be on par with each other (There will probably be a ~10-15% FPS difference depending on the game)

Even aside from this, the PC is going to be used exclusively for gaming. That's certainly the most performance intensive task, but having a good CPU is very beneficial. Faster loading times, faster productivity programs, better compression/decompression times (perhaps for downloading games/mods/addons/etc.). Gaming is a priority, not an exclusivity; it's not a console after all.

I meant to say boot times; aside from this programs will load faster in general. I wasn't referring to game loading times.
