I'm after building a a super budget gaming PC in a micro atx case..the smaller the better...think of maybe getting a cheap gtx 570 or 580 to play the odd game at 1080p the pc will be moved about a lot and also be used for some music creation using sonar


I'm out of touch with amd....and just bulit a x99 gaming rig....so I'm looking for the best bang for buck as possible and a case that easy to carry from one place to another....

I have an SSD for the is already....

Cheers !
 
Have you got any sort of price range in mind. That will help no end.

Do you already have a sound card or does that need to be factored in too? For normal gaming rigs a sound card isn't needed but for audio editing it would be well worth it.

150 ish for the mobo chip and ram...I'll be using a usb audio interface for the audio side of things...

I'm thinking that a AMD A10 7850k might be suitable? Then no need for a gfx card saving even more money...just looked at the Borderlands 2 videos on the a10 apu and it runs pretty sweet at 1080p on medium settings and runs at high settings at 720p! Apus seem to have moved on somewhat :eek:
