don't go amd get an intel sandy bridge celeron build. I have one and can honestly say that gaming wise, the celeron cpu is pretty close to my core i7 build. Starcraft 2 for example on my celeron runs about the same as on my core i7, and sc2 is one of the most demanding games cpu wise out there. The celeron g620 goes for about $60.
