Hey guys I'm building my first PC and was wondering if anyone could give me some pointers. I was thinking of getting an AMD FX 8350 CPU or an Intel I5 of sorts but I'm not sure what one to go for? What graphics card would you guys recommend getting and what motherboard would be ideal for these components? I know this forum has a lot of very knowledgable people on. I don't know much about specs and benchmarks.

Any feedback would be most appreciated,

Cheers.
 
I am looking for a tower PC, I want to be able to game in 1080p. the PC excluding peripherals and windows and stuff I will spend around £500 on. I will upgrade over time but this is just to get me up and running.
 
Thanks a lot! That's a big help, would it be worth buying a Intel Core i5 4440 3.10GHz Socket 1150 6MB and spending slightly over £500 although it's got less Ghz than the cheaper AMD and it has less cores. Surely isn't that what you look for in a CPU? More cores and more Ghz?
