BitFenix Prodigy Mini-ITX Tower [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB Kit [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
AMD A10-5800K APU 3.8 Ghz [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
FM2-A75IA-E53 Mini ITX motherboard [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Corsair Builder Series CX 430 Watt Power Supply [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

No graphics card?


That's the main thing you need to determine what games you can play.

Other than that, this looks like a good ITX build.

The graphics card is integrated into the CPU. You are half right because you can crossfire with the integrated graphics and a discrete card but i am short on money and I will update my build later by buying compatible graphics card.

That build should run most games with a decent fps.

Ah yeah.

Depending on the resolution, you could almost be getting 60 frames on some games!

I think you'll be fine for the time being depending on the games you play, you might need to tone down the resolution a bit if you want to get extra frames, but overall, this should satisfy your gaming needs until you upgrade.

The A10-5800k's in build GPU is a lot stronger than the A8-3870k that i have, it is a good chip for a budget build and casual gaming, i would say run everything on medium settings to get the most FPS out of games.

Obviously not games like Battlefield 3 and Crysis 3 as it probably won't be able to handle them, unless you pair it with a 6670.

Duel graphics is great on a budget build as the chip and card only cost around 130-150GBP depends on where you buy.

What is the best graphics card that is compatible with the AMD A10? (I havn't build an AMD based system in years)

You could probably hook up a Titan to the APU, when you add a dedicated chip to an APU it just takes over the in built GPU directly from the chip, nothing else. But i suggested the 6670 as it will pair with the in built graphics and it acts as a sort of Xfire.
