There are other chips available too. I mentioned E 1220 just as an example of starting price on that website.

^ Dude, CPU is not the only component if that list and neither I've explicitly mentioned the processor. 8320 is fine, but that motherboard is not at all good for a chip with such high TDP. Also, you don't need a 750 W PSU as it will be a waste.

You may need to sort it price mate. The cheapest is E1220 at 14.5k.

I've mentioned this before and I'm mentioning this again: the config you have mentioned in the first post is not at all good. Better fill up the questionnaire to bet suggestions.

The is still a small space between the heat sink and graphic card. You may fix an additional side panel fan to compensate airflow at graphic card.

i3 2xxx is second generation and i3 3xxx is third generation chip. There is not a big performance difference, but still it's always better to get the newer chip. Although Haswell is also available but at it's current price is not a VFM.

i3 3210 for 6800? Can you post a link?

If you don't want to play PSx exclusive games, get a PC eyes closed. Consoles = cheaper hardware + expensive software + limited utility PC = hardware at any price you want + cheaper games + Steam sale + wide utility area If you are interested in PC, we can discuss the config also t mention...

+1 for 280X. Get Sapphire or Asus card.
