New rig

[Tweezy]

Does the cpu bring a gpu with it? I don't know too much about this stuff. One of my friends was helping make this rig.

 

If you want to do gaming, don't get an APU. Read reviews and benchmarks on hardware you aren't too sure about. If you are building an AMD rig, get this:

Newegg.com - AMD FX-8150 Zambezi 3.6GHz Socket AM3+ 125W Eight-Core Desktop Processor FD8150FRGUBOX

AMD FD4100WMGUSBX FX-4100 Processor - Quad Core, 8MB L3 Cache, 2MB L2 Cache, 3.60GHz (3.80GHz Max Turbo), Socket AM3+, 95W, Fan, Unlocked, Retail at TigerDirect.com this will be quite adequate and costs no more than that APU. would work with your original mother board

I would get that but I don't have the money for that. I'm try to keep the price below 800. Instead of changing the mother board I'll change the cpu then. AMD FD6100WMGUSBX FX-6100 Processor - Six Core, 8MB L3 Cache, 6MB L2 Cache, 3.30GHz (3.90GHz Max Turbo), Socket AM3+, 95W, Fan, Unlocked, Retail at TigerDirect.com

I'll take it

I would also highly suggest you buy some arctic silver 5 thermal compound because the stuff they put on OEM just isnt as good IMO.

The FX-4100 is on a shitty micro-architecture get something on Piledriver.
