So i'm planning to build a $400 gaming pc. i'm trying to play current games at medium settings like battlefield 3, diablo 3, dayz. I researched a lot and found that APUs are great for budget builds, but my question is are they feasible for graphic card upgrades in the future?
This is my current researched build:
CPU; AMD A10-5800K APU: http://amzn.to/13i1cUC
Motherboard; MSI FM2-A75MA-E35 Motherboard: http://amzn.to/11ZgJCe
RAM; 8GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3 http://amzn.to/ZkATWc
HD; 500GB Western Digital Caviar Blue Hard Drive: http://amzn.to/13hWRR9
Case; NZXT Source 210 Case: http://amzn.to/12A23g7
PS; 430W Corsair CX430 Power Supply: http://amzn.to/19PZCeR
i already have the OS, monitor, optical drive
I am planning to upgrade the APU with a discrete graphics card in the future(in a year), but for money purposes ill be on the integrated one. Is it a bad idea to purchase the AMD A10, only to upgrade the Gpu later on? If so can anyone recommend a CPU GPU combination that would fit my price range/gaming needs?
thank you!
