I've seen plenty reviews on how you can use this apu to "play battlefield 3 on 720p with medium settings just fine" But what I'm wondering is, what kinda of performance do you get out of this apu on less demanding games. Like cs go or tf2 or lol or dota or indie games/older games. I assume that you can play them all just fine but I was wondering if anyone out there had actual performance tests on games like those so I could get an idea of how something like that might work for an apu build, since those are the kind of games I prefer playing anyway, since i'm not much of a Triple A title kind of guy.

this apu is great for games like lol and cs and dota

although imho its not worth the price youre paying

I learnt my lesson buying an APU, I wouldn't get one unless you don't think you are going to upgrade at all. A month after getting mine I just wanted more performance andf fps'

I don't plan on upgrading this build really. It's more of a build I'm trying to make so that I can something to play some games on that'd be better than using my laptop and also something my brothers can play on too. (I'm 16 so I'm still living with my family and all so I have to consider them for the most part) and when I get my summer job I'll build myself something a bit more serious. So it seems like a reasoable choice.

yep, is a good cpu/igpu friend

 

i love my A10 6800k, and your A10 7850k is more powerful that my A10  :lol:

 

is just my opinion, but i say... buy it

Good choice if your only planning on using iGPU, adding discrete graphics card aint worth it.
