it did very well in most games, the only downside I had was I had a A6 3620 which sucked at any cpu intensive game...skyrim would still lag up until I got my I5 which it did way better. Then I just got a Fx 8150 and a 7950 and love it.

well whats your budget...honestly the 7950 was at 189 a few months ago and was the deal of the century which I why I couldn't resist picking one up but with the bit coniers buying up all amd card its over 450 again and nowhere near worth it

the biggest problem with the APUs are the fact that they have no L3 cache which some games rely on. If I were you with a 300$ budget id be looking at the GTX 760 which would yes bottleneck some but its a damn strong card. Now without a bottleneck maybe a R9 270 which is a rebranded 7870. The 580 I mentioned is also a great card keeping up with the 7870. If I had to pick right now the GTX 580 in the deals forum for 120 is the best bang for buck youre going to find
