Hi,
I am very new to PC building and wanted to make an inquiry about a possible system I am planning to build (first timer).
My goal is to build a system in the $600 range for regular day-to-day usage and occasional gaming. For the former, I think AMD FX6300 would suffice, however, for the later, such as Skyrim ES or GTA 5, after reading quite a bit, I am, now, on the fence and do not know which way to go.
I am not a hard core gamer, and my intentions are not to put together a top of the line gear (as the price range hints). Nonetheless, I would like to know which CPU can deliver a better performance for multi-tasking and gaming. I also understand that my request also depends on other components, but I thought, if I can nail down the CPU, I can put the remaining puzzle pieces together.
Thank you.
