@daidem:

Yo o.c y sli no voy a hacer es algo que sale bastante caro jajaja, ¿me recomiendas un intel k por el tema del oc verdad?.

correct
@daidem:

Tengo una duda con el i5 si le pongo ddr3 1833 en lugar de la 1600,¿ la 1833 me daria mas rendimiento? Es que e mirado la ficha tecnica del i5 y pone ddr3 1333-1600.

you won't notice the difference at 1600 it's already good

Ya ya la pasta termica es una m xD pero bueno cuando limpie el ordenador por dentro el año que viene me arrascare el bolsillo y le pondre artic silver 5.

Well yes an APU could be ideal in your case, for a hundred and a bit you have CPU and GPU and the board from 75€ you have some decent ones.

the last option I have considered it a lot but I started with 320 and in the end I went up to 420 and I don't want to go up anymore, although I really do want to but I shouldn't :frio: and I was there to see if with € up and € down I could improve the final configuration in something or if paying a little less I could get the same performance in the CPU.

Well, that font looks perfect.
With what I told you, for 425€ you can build a decent computer that will be competitive now and in the future:
Intel Core i5-3570 3.4Ghz Box Socket 1155 BX80637I53570 Processor
Asrock Z77M 90-MXGMQ0-A0UAYZ Motherboard
G.Skill Ripjaws X DDR3 1600 PC3-12800 8GB 2x4GB CL9 F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL DDR3 Memory
Sapphire Radeon HD 7750 1GB GDDR5 11202-00-20G Graphics Card
Best regards

As a note, I would like to highlight that if you decide on the APU option, it is important to put good memories in it since it will be noticed a lot (I am talking about the experience of people who play with an A10 5800)...

Anyway, if you are going to use virtual machines, perhaps an i5 with the 770 would be more worth it for you, since it is a better processor than the FX and the A10, and the graphics are better than the one used by the APU.

things as they are, nowadays to play and for your pc to last a good season the best is an I5K the rest …. :wall:

There's not much difference between the 3570 and 3470, is there? or is there?

I say this because I don't like the idea of losing the possibility of expanding the RAM if necessary, although nowadays 8GB is more than enough, but my Pentium 4 had 1GB and it seemed more than enough, and after a while it had 3GB and in case the situation repeats, I would like to cover my back.

There's also the issue of being micro ATX, which means that any cooler won't fit, in short, I see more drawbacks than advantages in a micro ATX.

Well it seems that things are settled because in AMD there's nothing more economical that offers the same for less and in Intel even less.

By the way I have the Zalman CNPS9500A LED cooler, although it's currently on my Pentium 4, but that's beside the point, would it be better to use this one than the stock one, right?

[Franziskaner]

that AMD thing is very debatable, because for half the price of any Intel, you can get a 965 that's more than enough for gaming, especially with a 7750 graphics card. It's another thing if you told me it had a titanium cucumber.
about the memos... well, sooner or later we'll all end up with 16 Gb as the most natural thing in the world. but it's possible that this will happen in DDR4 :troll:

@G0D1N0:

Well, what a chore to look at 6 different budgets…joe. It certainly won't be for variety, but let's go.
I stayed with the last one, the i5 and HD7700, I think you have enough for a good while with that. Anyway, if you could stretch for an 7850 (even if it's the 1GB one) you would already have a pretty good gaming PC for less than 500€ :troll:
But money is money, and if you can't/don't want to spend more than 400€, you have very good configurations with what you've been told in this last post.

Difficult choice:

[Bm4n]

Difficult no, without a doubt the i5…

[_Neptunno_]

Man, the SSD is an extra point... but I prefer the i5 anyway. The reason is that, later on you can access having an SSD, but the other way around you are already subject to one platform or another without any more possibility of change.
And of course the i5 is quite superior in terms of pure performance.

I think we are talking about different things, first an APU which would be a very modest configuration but which is suitable for playing in 3D and is ideal for not spending money because for 225€ you can have the pack (CPU, GPU, motherboard and RAM) and then there would be an i5 with a 7770 which would be a fairly powerful computer but we would go to at least 425€ for the pack.

For me, these are very different things, we are talking about almost double the price, of all of them I don't understand much the use of playing mmorpg and watching videos at 1080 which supposedly doesn't need much for that with the use of 3 VMs at the same time which at least requires a lot of RAM...
