i just want to ask a question mam and sir.....
i upgraded my computer this month and i want to know what processor will not bottleneck my r9 270x 2gb gddr5.......from a8 5600K or a8 6600K....

my old cpu is a4 5300,,,and my mother board is FM2 socket so i decided to upgrade to a apu also because it will cost a lot to buy a new mother board..hehehe

Athlon X4 750K, I cannot recommend this enough. You already have a graphics card, a good one. This is similar to an A10-5700, without the graphics co-processor on the chip (which you don't need) and it is only $80.

If you want to spend more money and get more performance, get yourself a socket AM3+ or Intel 1150 motherboard and processor.

athlon x4 is not possible in the OP's location.

it's a shame you're stuck on the FM2 socket with such a good card.

My advice: keep your current CPU and save up to purchase an FX-4300 or FX-6300+Motherboard.

Reason: If you upgrade to the A8 you're just throwing money at a processor that isn't MUCH of an improvement.

If you MUST upgrade, take the 5800K but the 5800K is an A10 not an A8 remember.
