I have an amd-a10 6700

I would like to know 3 things , what's the best possible graphics card my processor could use ( preferably under a grand)

Is my cpu good enough to record high end games if I upgraded the graphics card

And is there a difference between a gpu and a graphics card

More about : graphics card processor

if youre willing to spend 1000$ on a GPU then you should consider an entire new rig. the AMD APU (A6/A8/A10) are exceptionally weak. They are advertised by AMD as lower power low demand chips (for business computers). If you want to game and not waste money thats the only advice i can give. even a GTX 780ti paired with your A10 would not work well as the CPU cant utilize the GPU's full power (this is a 'bottleneck').

I want to recocomend a gtx 770 sounds like you have a decent budget although a faster processor will give you more fps with the same 770 it will position you well for other upgrades down the road.

I can't recommend anything faster as a CPU upgrade would be needed to make it worthwhile. 770 records gameplay very well.

even paired with a 770 youll see bottleneck, the APU will hold him back.

Currently im looking only to upgrade the graphics card becauze As of the moment I'm flat broke , however I'm looking into a job that pays well ... I'm not really hardware savvy , software is more my style xD , I've heard that putting together a rig from scratch isn't hard ... so let's say that money isn't an issue , could you give me parts for an absolute leviathan of a computer ... like eats crysis 3 for breakfast fast?

Also , is my cpu bad to the point where if I upgraded my gpu to something insane , I still might not be able to run/record some games?

yes, start a new thread and post budget and uses etc. post if you need a monitor or Operating System too. PM me a link to the thread

I know about bottlenecks but the 770 with his apu will get better fps than a 750ti and his apu.

The 770 is also good enough to transfer to his new cpu when he gets it where if I recommended a 750ti it wouldn't be as good to transfer to new cpu.
