I'm gonna buy a new PC and I don't know poop about PC's. So I wonder if these specs are good for
BF4 and CS:GO

OS: Windows 8.1

CPU: AMD A10 5800K 3,8 Ghz 4MB, 100W, FM2 / Radeon HD7660D

GPU: APU Radeon HD7660D

RAM: 8GB

Storage: 1TB
 
I would say avoid those AMD APUs for heavy weight gaming like BF4, if you have the money you should probably find a PC with a discrete graphics card

as it stands, that combo will not be able to run BF4 on anything but the lowest settings and the lowest resolutions
 


Even @720p?
 


well that's what I mean, he'll only be able to run it at that resolution, but probably not on high settings

that's the only benchmark i could find of 720p, and though this was beta and drivers and optimization has come a long way since, his HD7660D is roughly equivalent to the HD 6670, so he should expect numbers not much higher than that, and that's with low settings too
 
ah :( that's unfortunate, are newer computers/parts priced very high in Sweden? Cause if they're about the same throughout their lifetime, then I would suggest waiting for the new Kaveri APUs to hit the market and be built into PCs, it can handle a lot more than the current gen APUs can (last I heard they can run BF4 at 1080p smoothly so there's that too).

If you don't want to wait, try to see if you can find a fairly priced Richland APU instead (the A10 6800k instead of the 5800)
