My build is almost complete. I only have to get the CPU and motherboard yet, however I am facing a bit of a dilemma.
I can get the AMD A10 7850k APU that has the built in graphics, comes with a relatively cheap (temporary) motherboard, and comes with battlefield 4 for free (Meh...) for $130.
I can get the AMD FX6300 that comes with a cheap (temporary) motherboard for $120.
Or, I can get the AMD FX8320 for $99.
Here is the wrench in the situation.
Whatever I choose will be running a R9 270x. Would the integrated graphics in the 7850k increase my performance at all? Does it being quad core rather than hexa core hold it back?
I've heard the FX6300 actually performs close to, if not better than the FX8320 when overclocked. I know I the FX8320 for $99 is a great price, but then i have to shell out more for a motherboard that can handle it's 125w power consumption. I really have to stay around the $750 dollar range due to just buying a new car this month.
Just wanting some opinions on what would likely be my best option.
This is my build if it helps at all. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/2UhTt
EDIT: forgot to mention. With the 7850k, I will crossfire it with an r7 250 I have laying around.
