Hi.

Combining an expensive APU with a strong discrete GFX card is a mistake.

APUs like that one have a built-in GFX core thats roughly equal to a £40-50 GFX card and is more aimed at people how cant afford a separate card.


This would be faster instantly,

Did you need a storage drive like what I have included?
 
yes i do need storage like you have included,
i did not know that the apu is weak ,
is the 4gb graphic card better
then the one in your build ?
as i can get it for 154 pound. thanks
 
I would at least get the EVGA 600B or Strider 500W, as the standard 80+ units aren't great and for the most part, the PSU isn't the part to scrimp on
