AMD APUs are much better in low-budget general-usage builds without discrete GPUs or a 6670 in hybrid Crossfire for decent gaming performance. Even then they're hard to justify, though. Here you're running a discrete card that doesn't make use of hybrid Crossfire, defeating the whole purpose of the APU. Also don't get a prebuilt PC, you're lighting money on fire and sacrificing a lot of flexibility.

Hey guys look at my parts list and see if my build works!
And does my mobo support the i5 3570K as it is a Z77 board? And could you link me to a good cheap heatsink fan? plus if there are any other things i need like thermal past please say as i am ordering tomorrow!
It's perfect if you want more CPU power than gaming performance and I would not have recommended the i5 with a Z77 board if it didn't work. Know that the 3570K is only worth it if you get an aftermarket CPU cooler (I recommend the Hyper 212 Evo for you) and if you will overclock it. Otherwise, you can save quite a lot of money by getting the i5-3470 I recommended, using the stock cooler, and even using a B75 motherboard.
so everything is perfect then! thats all i wanted to know i am going to get the heatsink aftermarket cooler now and order it then?
Actually, I would recommend you buy a different cooler. The Enermax ETS-T40-TB performs better for the same price.

xplodingtaco1 wrote Hey r00t, I just ordered the RAM that you always recommend
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
And I was wondering how to overclock it. Because I know that it is very slow at stock speeds and could you recommend a tutorial for me to overclock it? Thanks a lot root.
Different motherboards will have a different process for this, but the concept is the same. Is this what you're looking for?

The settings I run my kit at are DDR3 2000 cas 9-9-9-24 1T @ 1.55v. It's kinda pointless and you could easily get 1866 cas 9-9-9-24 1T @ 1.5v. It's kind of overclocking for the sake of overclocking considering you'll see negligible performance gains from this... But who cares!

**Edit, are you saying that overclocking this RAM won't make much of a difference?

Hi... I have a 140mm fan.. should i use it as a side fan or will it disrupt the air flow?
Is it better to have 2x120mm fans on the hyper 212 Evo cpu cooler or one?
Should i use a 120MM fan for the bottom of my NZXT Phantom 410 case as the fans on the Graphics card blow down?
Should i have 2x120mm fans at the front and one on the Hyper 212 evo CPU Cooler or a 140mm fan at the front and two fans on the Hyper 212 Evo cpuy cooler?
