Looking to make a budget build using ubuntu as an OS. The only problem I have encountered is talk of graphics drivers for the APU's not working. I'm wanting to use an A8-6600k. I'm not sure if I should risk using this or go safer with a new haswell i3.
Any tips/advice appreciated.
 


These should work just fine.
