amd apu help!!!

[amdfx1997kid]

Okay i already bought a mother board and have the rest of my build together cant decide on the cpu/ apu i have it narrowed down to 3.
would like youre imput guys! first is the amd althlon x4 750k trinity (bassically an a10 5800k with gfx core disabled) then the actual a10 5800k and last but not least a10 7850k i would use integrated graphics but I plan on using a r7 260x or a gtx 750 ti
oh yea for ram im using some ripjaws 1866 ddr3 8 gig kit and for the mother board its a asrock fm2a55m-vg3+ (supports both fm2 and fm2+ apu/cpu's) thanks guys!
also the usage will be gaming at 1080p video editing and some 3d modeling and rendering

Athlon + 750ti

750ti is more powerful but the APU is more easily upgradable. Ask yourself how long until you will upgrade? If it is not very long buy an APU and stick a GPU in there next chance you get.

7850k barely outperforms athlon so you basically pay premium for just igpu...

I am talking from a cost standpoint. APU is cheaper than the 750ti build and you won't waste money on a GPU you will just replace down the road.

no. you are left with same cpu and worthless iGPU, that you payed for

and you can allways sell the card.

Athlon + 750ti

Here's a better RAM option: G.SKILL Sniper Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2133 @ $74.99 <-- Same RAM I picked up for my daughters build with an ASUS A88X-PRO + 6800K.

 

As for the APU, why not include the 6800K as an option or just go with the Kaveri option you listed above.

[amdfx1997kid]

reason why i picked the ram i did is my mobo only supports up to 1866 its a buisness class board. and 6800k performs within 5 fps of the 5800k and for 30 bucks more it wasnt worth it for me. and thanks for the input guys i think ill just go athlon! question how does the r7 260x perform against the gtx 750ti??? i mostly play radeon titles with the exeption of hawken. also ill point out I have no problems over clocking cpu gpu or apu lol

[s3ns3]

the gtx 750 Ti is a better than 260x and its a very efficient card.

[Prokart2000]

athlon and 750ti 

[ariceneo]

750ti or wait for r7 265 both cards should be around same and u can pick but the 750ti is better then r7 260x
