Gaming Computer

I did that in the car on the way to dinner.
Hunger_Gamer wants a small and quiet machine according to what he said on Skype. So I just picked that mobo without looking at anything. I'll put more thought into that when I get home.

I've heard good things about that processor,

since this is an APU, the ram is everything. So I'm probably going to see if I can find 1800MHz 8gb ram. From what I've seen, APUs do amazing with really fast ram.
Over 8GB on a gaming only machine is usually useless, at that point speed of the ram is more important.

Correct, unless this guy wants to run a private MC server for friends? Then it could be more useful I guess. And that processor could easily be overclocked to about 4 ghz with some decent cooling systems which is why I want one

Okay okay I don't need to make a server, I am planning to buy one most likely

In this case he can just use his old machine and run a dedicated Linux server. That's what I do.
