Hi guys

I am in the market for a new CPU and motherboard and I was wondering if you guys can give me some recommendations

1. No intense gaming. WoW and Diablo 3/occasional league of legend/small indie games on steam at most

2. I mainly use my PC for school, netflix, crunchyroll, and other streaming

3. I don't have a habit of overclocking and not looking into bitcoining.

Don't have a real budget but would like to keep it as little as possible. Probably around $300...I don't know if that's reasonable.

No preference on intel or AMD.

Thank you

I assume you need ram as well...

Gigabyte GA-F2A78M-D3H $65.00
AMD A8-5600K $90.00
AMD Radeon Performance Series DDR3-1866 RAM AP38G1869U1K (4GBx2) $92.00

You can always add an HD6570 down the road if you feel the need to upgrade to dual graphics.
