| Right, because it can be terrible even though I haven't chosen a GPU yet.

AMD is cheap.
You want at least 650w.
Ram is ok but I'd go with corsair vengeance.

How do you figure. PCI-e 16x never changes and the Phenom II's are still being made. No need in a hexcore because the benchmarks are lower.

I'm building a gaming computer for most games, not an enthusiasts wet dream for rendering multiple movies.

Literally what I'm doing except I can only afford 1 6970.
Actually I can't afford any right now so I'm adding them on later.

| i7s are pretty cheap, x58 motherboard and Intel i7, might run you 600 dollars, but you won't upgrade your computer for another 4 years.

| Cryoma, you asked "if the socket has to match the CPU exactly". Sorry, but your credibility has lowered to negative four.
