Apparently it is. It might be pretty decent performance for the price. Are you sure you chose a compatible motherboard and a reliable power supply? If you can post links to the products you are looking at, it would be great.

ill be running to 6570 in crossfire when i can afford it

Crossfire with the APU barely has any benefits, and two 6570s in Crossfire just isn't worth  the cost. What is your budget? 

[mrwelholden22]

You really should set some sort of budget to work around mate.
