Advice on extreme low budget AMD build.

Thread Starter 
Good Morning!

I'm building a rig for my gf, and it has a max of 500€. I will be buying from this site. [www.coolmod.com]
(Keep in mind that a screen has to be included in this price)

I've got most of the rig planned out, just wanted to ask for opinions and GPU advice.


CPU: AMD Phenom II 965BE 93€
MB: ASUS M5A78L-M/USB3 AM3+ 70€
RAM: Kingston HyperX 1x4GB 20€
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 70€
PSU: 500W NOX URANO 36€

DVD: 20€
Screen: Samsung 21.5" FullHD 99€

This adds up to a total of 408€
It leaves 92€ for a GPU... I can extend this to 110€

What do you think is currently the best GPU available for 110€?
7750? If so, what brand?

Btw: I'm paying for the case myself, it's a NZXT 210 Source Elite.



Thanks for your time,
Artur.

If you're planning on gaming you'll struggle.... You'd be better off waiting another month and getting another 100 in there so you can gget something like a 7850.

You may want to think about used. Do you plan on overclocking?

You can have dual channel RAM at the same price.
