Hi first of all very thanks for reading my topic
I'm building a new PC which is budget range and I am using some parts from my previous PC .
I am thinking of going amd so I need suggestion as I've never used or built an amd system (used only Graphics Card), so far I've chosen these components (suggest anything better if think)
CPU - AMD FX 6300
RAM - 2x2 Gb ddr3 (will upgrade later)
GPU - HD 7770 (old from previous pc)
HDD - 500 GB WD blue (old from previous pc)
Power supply - generic 400w power supply (old from previous pc)
Motherboard - still not decided need help So far I've picked these two for my mobo (please suggest only gigabyte or Asus mobos)
Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3 and Asus M5A78L-M/USB3
I dont know which to choose please favor gigabyte and cheap one as gigabyte is easily available at my location and i fear that as the gigabyte one is having 8 pin CPU power supply and i only have 4 on my psu will it work ?
All replies are much appreciated
For reference check flipkart.com I'm buying my stuff from there

Build threads normally go in General Hardware.

Btw, if all you have is a 400W generic PSU, with a 4-pin CPU connector, then you will want to buy a name-brand PSU if you are dropping in an FX CPU. They require quite a bit of power, and would likely be unstable on your old PSU.
