Thinking of treating yourself to a nice PC upgrade with chrissy just around the corner, but not too sure on how to spec it up without blowing your budget? Never fear, for FastSilicon's budget Dream Machine guide is here! - They base it around Intel's E6300 processor (knowing how much of an overclocking champ it is) and even whack up some benchmarks of this build to give you a good idea of the kind of kickarse performance you'll get from this well spec'd up budget beasty.

Intel's E6300 is the best CPU for the price. Overclocked, it outperforms AMD's current offerings and equals that of a $1000.00 processor. Long has it been since we've seen such an amazing overclocker, and the E6300 will certainly go down in history. It's the perfect match for our AB9-Pro Dream Machine on a Budget. We hope this will serve as a guide for those looking to get the most for their money, while at the same time having a computer that is nothing short of spectacular in terms of performance.
