Hiya guys, I am in the process of putting together a budget build for my brother and looking for a cheap AMD Bulldozer FX 6100 bundle.

Can somebody point me towards a decent (cheap) motherboard and some (cheap) memory 8GB??

Do you have the bulldozer chip?

Also, whats your budget

Hiya mate - it is the Black Edition CPU:

Budget is as cheap as possible got everything else purchased and just need motherboard and 8GB 1600 MHz Ram.

Ok whats the PC for mate?

Hiya, the pc will be used mainly for photoshop work, spreadsheets, media playback and possibly a touch of video encoding.

Won't be gaming on it.

Depends what you mean by cheap.

This is what I would recommend for a value FX build

Motherboard:

RAM:

You could make it cheaper, but this is just what I would go for

I would also go for this, recommended for a friend recently

He uses the FX-4170, little faster than your chip, just less cores!

Thanks guys - that is the motherboard I had my eye on to be fair ... but thanks for putting my mind at rest.
