AMD are only really useful for APU rigs right now. AM3+ is a dead socket. FM2+ is very much alive though. APUs are really only for very tight budget builds where a dedicated GPU just isn't affordable. For your budget, you should be getting a decent Intel rig. Like this;

Lovely little build, will max 1080p ezpz, easy upgradability to an i5/i7/Xeon. SSD for your OS and a game or two.
