Will this be ok? I have a different case (It glows :O) and only 4gb or RAM. I want to upgrade ram at a later time. I can afford about 500ish$

This seem pretty solid to me. Does this still seem better than the Original APU bundle? This is like 50$ cheaper since the bundle does not include an OS. Also, am I going to need a CPU cooler to overclock the CPU? After doing some research the processor seems really overclockable. How much better is this CPU compared to the Kaveri APU? You said I might be able to get 120 fps in CS with the apu, will I get it for sure with this build?

#215 PC Build Thread in Hardware

Hi, so I rarely play TF2 anymore, and have become pretty involved with CS:GO. As of now I have never owned a nice computer so this will be my first gaming "rig."

From what I have learned CS:GO has integrated graphics, so buying a top end GPU for a gamer who nearly exclusively plays CS:GO is pointless.

I've been looking into some APU's and they seem like they would be very good (for their price)for games with integrated graphics. I decided to look into it and created this: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/jcarpenter/saved/zBFbt6

I some people on youtube with the same APU getting about 50-60 fps in CS:GO on max settings playing with very similar builds. I think with an FPS config they could probably boost to 120? On my PC now I get about 20 fps with (nearly) maxed settings, and I get about 60-80 with a config.

I'm not looking to play games like BF4 or Crysis or anything like that, although I saw this guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cv57qDXpEPU play BF4 with some pretty sick frames. The video showed off how much high speed RAM can boost the same APU I listed in games like BF4, but even though I won't have RAM anywhere near his, this makes me think the APU has a lot of potential if I upgrade RAM in the future. Also I heard you can add an extra GPU into the system on top of the one integrated into the Kaveri.

My questions:

1. Will I be able to run CS:GO at an average of about 120 fps with a config?
2. Will upgrading to high speed RAM let me be able to play more system intensive games?
3. Can I add a graphics card in the future to the APU? (Run APU and GPU in one system)
4. If I can add a GPU how much will it benefit me in more graphically intensive games?
5. Is it worth the money? The build is bundled on Newegg.com for $380.00 (No Operating Sytem)

Absolutely love my rival, I believe they're pretty cheap now. Also heard great things about the Zowie FK1, but I think can be hard to get.
