You should probably be looking into AMD APU bundles as that should more than handle COD and Steam

Nah that 9750 is old school ting, too weak, had one before, it 'meh'. PLus it's a socket am2+ cpu and boards for those scarce/expensive.

A friend of mine selling ah phenom ii x4 965 BE cheap if u want, 125w version, socket am3 $225 with an amd heatpiped copper based heatsink/fan). You can get a good am3/am3+ board from wizz for $550 (Biostar ta970, have a friend using that with the 8 core u sold me, very solid board), 4gb ddr3 is abt $350 now, vid card you might have to get used to cut down on cost or import one, case and drives affordable locally. Suggest u import an ssd, would make a world of difference in gaming and overall system speed.

I had ah gtx 750 on ah i7-3770 system and it maxing out a lot of games at 1080p (nfs rivals, borderlands 2 for example).

The AMD FM2/FM2+ bundles good for gaming as said before but to me they more suited for htpc/hd video/streaming use. SOme of the cpus get a lil too hot on stock cooling cuz of the built in radeon graphics, had two setups before.

Had an athlon 5150 quad core 1.6ghz socket am1 cpu and a m-atx board as my htpc and it performed very well for those purposes. CPU was a 25w so it ran very cool and the whole system was pulling abt 90w load (1tb hdd, optical drive, 4gb ddr3).

I eh go lie but should go intel one time and done, u wouldn't have to upgrade for a good while. A haswell quad core and compatible board will serve you fine.
