I am trying to build a cheap HTPC for movies and gaming. I don't want to spend more than $1,000. Currently considering the FX-4100 and the HD 7850, but I'm not sure about the CPU. I definitely want to go AMD on this one, and probably some form of bulldozer. The FX-4100 is a nice budget price and seems OK. I don't need a powerhouse for this system, just something that is good enough to play HD movies and some games (at moderate settings). I like the price on the FX-4100, but I could probably go as high as $200 for something better.
Is this a good choice, or is there something better from AMD?
