lol we built pretty much the same system.

With this build, all i need after is a tower+powersupply?

Yes. I would get an aftermarket cooler like the 212 evo cause the amd ones are loud imo
i would spend the extra money to get a 370 with 4gb vram for sure.

best of both builds imo

Yes, I would recommend a after market cooler as well, but if you don't care about noise and not planning to overclock, you don't really need it. Just a little louder.
Also, getting a 4GB vram card would be recommended, but if you don't plan on using this computer to play high end games or photoshop or aything like that, then again not really needed.

For the case I would recommend ($160) - Fractal Design Define R5 Black Window

You can also get it in white or titanium color and without a window which is $15 cheaper.
This case is one of the quietest cases in the market.

black & blue build

will give you better performance than the AMD builds listed above

also, i recommend u get a psu here, than at ur local shop. I can guarantee u that they'll sell u a shitty one, and/or overpriced.
They won't be able to beat evga b2 750 psu for $75.99 after MIR, quality & price wise.

dunno why u'd want a 3+ yr old outdated cpu, but here's red & black AMD build.

though if ur downgrading the CPU, might as well get a higher tier GPU to make up for it.

but keep in mind, GPU is the most common thing to upgrade in the future. AMD build will make u upgrade CPU before any much stronger GPU in the future. Especially since these CPU are alrdy 3+ yrs old.
kinda like those ppl having problems to upgrade now to play fallout 4 etc., they need to upgrade their x4 860k CPU AND GPU, cos it's gonna bottle neck it hard just by upgrading GPU.

wouldnt even bother paying for a 4gb 370, it won't utilize it to its full potential, better off gettin 2gb 960 or 4gb 380.

I would recommend going with 16GB RAM instead of 8GB, that way you can have a million things open without any lag.
And the 2TB hard drive which doesn't cost much more either

Total: $815.90 (That is only $36 more), especially the ram 8GB is not much nowadays, when the top smartphones have 4GB.

Here is an updated list.

So which one the better?

Fancy post, shitty build LOL



The one Secksi linked with the 4460 for sure...

Looking for a final review to order
