NInety

nice build but APU need decent speed RAM

 

I will be scared to run the build with that PSU 

Budget? Uses? Currency? Location? Operating System? Peripherals? Monitor? Use PCPartPicker wherever possible.

If anyone buys this, throw out the PSU and buy another one anyway.

Thought the same thing.

As well as, that MoBo is going to look small in that case. :P Not TOO small...but still.

I really wish that we'd just make organic hardware already, that grows and adapts to the demands it needs to meet. That way, grannies' computers can be floppy sacks of organicness and the 12 year old Minecrafters will look like the guys that only do bicep curls, and the nerdy programmers will finally have justice, with their body-builder rigs that skipped leg day.

still that A10 is gonna get bottleneck by the slow RAM

 

A10-6800K needs at least 1866MHz RAM since the iGPU use the system RAM for VRAM

Nope. Not true. I got my 2133 ram and hat it at 1333 for testing, after a benchmark, I OC'd it to the stock 2133. And only got a 5FPS Boost. And the ram can be overclocked anyways.

So at some degree it does matter. I mean 5-10% more fps is more than it seems. Ram untill 2133Mhz is quite worth the money. 2400Mhz is already too expensive for a built with an apu :)
