  • New pc setup

    Hi all!
    Sorry my language but my english is not the best.
    I have been reading phoronix for a few years but its the first time i post on phoronix.

    First of all, thanks Michael for all the tests and news on linux and hardware world!
    Second, thanks Intel and AMD for supporting open source (thanks bridgman too)!
    Third, thanks to all who support linux and open source in general, Valve, all graphics and general software devs, etc... !

    I am asking for your help to decide the best components for my new pc.
    Please notice that i have a somewhat restricted budget (~550€) and want only AMD for processor and graphics, so please keep that in mind!
    PC will be mainly for gaming (Ex: ARK or The talos Principle, etc), office and web browser.

    This is the store where i will buy it. i will divide each component by category to keep things simple.
    Any question, feel free to ask.

    3-Power source: (preferably modular): https://www.pcdiga.com/fontes-de-alimentacao

    Well, folowing some research, i decided this:

    Processor: AMD Athlon™ X4 880K unlocked edition or AMD-A10-6790k-4-3ghz

    Motherboard: Asus A88XM-E

    For the graphics card: MSI Radeon RX 460 4G OC , but since the processor only supports DDR3, will be compatible?

    Any tips?

    Thanks in advance!

      Thanks! I had that doubt but i found here that the 4GB is on the graphics card and do not interfere with the ram. Only integrated graphics use ram. And i will keep that card since i would like to try the 1080p gaming. Thanks!!
