It should work.

My advice, for 10 dollars more you can get much better cpu (was wrong link): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103994

Oops, bad link.

Here is the one I was talking about, the A8 cpu: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103994

Kinda off topic but, I have an " AMD Phenom II X6 1090T"... it was THE best seller almost a year ago and now I can't even find it on newegg. How come a 6 core was faced out for a bunch of 3 core llanos? WTF? This build of mine still outperforms out of the box PCs my friends got last week.

IMHO, AMD kinda stepped back instead of forward with the whole gpu+cpu nonesence.

Back to topic: OP, your build will run EvE really nice.

will this work ?

That was a stupid move. The A4/A6/A8 AMD cpu do DX11. You just picked board that does DX9, it will run EVE, but I hope you plan on using Windows Xp.

OP, are you going to use a video card or use onboard video?

Anybody know if Windows 7 can run on DX9 video chip? Or do you need DX10 video chip?

Llano is a dead end. Don't bother if you have a video card. You say you have a 7800gtx. This is already near what you can get with the integrated video in the CPU you said you want. Components are cheap already so a good quality and expensive powersource is a waste.

Same price but much faster.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813135250
Cheaper.

Get 8GB. RAM is very cheap.

If you want more help go on http://www.tomshardware.com/ to their forums and post asking for help in the appropriate forum section their very helpful. There are a lot of knowledgeable people on there who basically help people choose the parts and best deals on there in their free time. Just remember to post weither or not you plan to OC or not. And what you plan on using it for, just be prepared for having your original idea of what to build get torn to shreds, but in general they come up with a lot better in the end for the same price or cheaper.

I am one of the people who regularly helps people do this when I get bored (when I have free time), so I can tell you from what I've seen you will probably have a lot more people people looking over your build than you would on here. So I recommend posting on there.

Welcome to Eve. Everyone here is an Evil Sick Sadistic Bastard who is out to get you. Anyone who tells you otherwise is either trying to scam you or use you.

PRO TIP

No one who knows anything builds AMD... it sucks... sorry most sites won't even tell you to buy ANY amd cpu at ANY price...

Ha. You do not read many site.
i3 2100 cost 120$ and is 20% faster compared to athlon ii x3 455 and sandybridge motherboard also cost more. With amd you get cpu at 80$ plus motherboard at only bit more compared to only intel cpu.
All games that work on intel work on amd. Most games do not need lot of cpu but need lot of video card. Saving lot of money on cpu and motherboard and use that for video mean better game fps with same price. So why not use amd ?

2 core cpu is 20% faster than a 3core...

Most games run on one core... (however this is changing)

So your looking at a HUGE IPC gain...



ya you do not use amd that's it. I read more than enough also

Yes NEW intel cpu vs OLD amd and talk about price


Lets look at a new FX fail cpu... all your savings will be gone in upped power usage LOL

just to add...

http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-fx-pentium-apu-benchmark,3120-10.html

With the sub-$100 Pentiums performing so well, Intel's $125 Core i3-2100 easily beats more expensive Phenom II and FX models. And the $190 Core i5-2400 dominates the sub-$200 landscape without challenge, really. As such, we're almost-shockingly left without an AMD CPU to recommend at any price point.

Athlon II X3 455 with AM3 cheap motherboard or Pentium G630 with cheap H61 motherboard, I guess it's about the same.

I've had AMDs in the past, quite a few of them actually (not recently, though), but there was always something that annoyed me about them, can't quite put a finger on what though. So I'm quite partial to Intel chips nowadays and will not bother with AMD at all anymore. Call me biased if you want, I'm not buying AMD anymore, at least not for desktops, with laptops, depends, but probably try to stay away too.
I also prefer NVIDIA over ATI/AMD, even if I used to own a few ATI cards in the past (low and mid-ends mostly, but I also kept mostly to mid-end with NVIDIA, and had a couple of low-end NVIDIAs too, so, eh). For laptops, I'm far more likely to accept an AMD video card though, but for a desktop, NVIDIA all the way.

Fierce competition between Intel and AMD makes sure that there's very little gap in terms of price/performance when you consider the entire CPU/GPU lineup, it's more a matter of picking out the right chip/card out of the line of either manufacturer rather than picking the "right" manufacturer.

P.S. The new FX chips are truly disappointing though, Sandybridge is just so much better, and Ivybridge at stock speeds or close to that is downright amazing. AMD has seen much better days, not sure if they'll truly recover. And it would be a shame if they did not recover, because that would make Intel stop trying hard enough.
