AMD A10 worth it?

[hardtofindinthefuture]

So, i was looking at the AMD a10-7860k and the performance is no joke.

 

It got a 33FPS average in GTA 5 at 1080p

 

And for $100 is it worth picking up?

Well it depends, do you plan to add a dedicated GPU into the system? If you do, then no, it isn't worth it cause you can have the Pentium G4560 for 60$ which is the current budget king of CPUs, however if you're planning on gaming on the iGPU then the A10 will smash the Pentium.

The performance is alright for the price, but you have a very limited upgrade path.

Well a Pentium G4500 + rx460 4GB = $170

And the AMD 7860k = $100

 

So its cheaper, but is it better?

No, the RX 460 is much more powerful. By like 250% comparing to the iGPU on the A10. It's a Pentium G4560 btw, only this one is good cause it has HyperThreading.
