So for quite some time now I've been wanting to build a new PC that meets my gaming needs. My current PC has sufficed thus far, but with new games coming out the require faster CPUs and higher quality GPUs I've decided that I should upgrade. I have decent knowledge of computer hardware and software, but I would like to get some outside help with this so I can spend as little as possible while getting the best parts possible. My budget is around 500-600$, but I won't be buying everything at once. Some parts will be bought for my birthday and some parts will be bought after I get a job.
My list:
CPU/MoBo Combo:
BIOSTAR TFORCE TA790GX 128M AM3/AM2+/AM2 AMD 790GX HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard
AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ 3.1GHz 1MB L2 Cache Socket AM2 89W Dual-Core Processor - 140$
