MSI FM2-A75MA-E35 Motherboard Compatability

Solution
You're fine.

Save a few bucks for an aftermarket cooler, and OC the 5800k if you feel like you are being held back in any fashion. The APU will push most any video card *just dandy* at 1080p & up.

The overwhelming majority of gaming titles are driven by the GPU.

Sorry for the hasty click of the best answer button, but if I were to buy a CPU to go well with the 770 what would you recommend AMD-wise

From Techspot: Battlefield 4 Benchmarked

No one is denying there are more expensive CPUs that will generate higher frames but, as noted ...

The APU will push most any video card *just dandy* at 1080p & up.

Tell me, when the OP is getting over 60 FPS in every title, just how big a difference is it really going to make, huh?

:pfff:



 
OP.......... if you swap cpu's you'll also have to swap boards. not worth it from my standpoint. personally I would invest into an i5 minimally or an i7. if you buy the big card now, in 2years time you can upgrade your platform to something better and keep the apu machine for low/medium 720p gaming and general usage.
