My friend asked me to put a build together for him that would game well and also do video editing for youtube etc. Budget was 1050. He will take care of the OS. OD and wireless card were musts as was a sturdy case and at least 1tb of HDD.

see if you can find the 7870 MYST card (sold out on newegg).
TH has it as the buy @ $235 and the 7950 BOOST card @ $300, they don't recommend anything in between though.

Great build IMO.
Go with CUDA and not AMD. More programs fully ultilize CUDA over AMD.
I would get an 8320 over an 8350 tbh. You could just OC to 4.0... It has the exact same buckets of cache as 8350.

Oh wait..
Only 8GB for a video editing rig? You need more.. Idk what size files but if over 5mins, get 16gb of RAM.

that would be a good idea
OP near a micro center?
FX8320 + gigabyte 990FXA UD3 board = $240 ($268 after tax in Texas. $10 mail in rebate to make it $258)

Lol, i know nothing when it comes to pc. I beginning to think a budget build is a really expensive console.

Most gaming rigs end up doubling as powerhouse PCs for video editing, 3d modeling, and even some server functions. Even the budget ones can accomplish this in some form. It's still a computer.

I just meant strictly budget gaming pcs. You cant use max settings on a budget, can you?

Depends on your budget
