I'm looking to create a new HTPC / Gaming rig, and with inspiration from the System Builder Marathon I'd like to keep it under $1000.
My Main question is: Has anyone tested the new AMD A8-3850 dual graphics with any 68XX or 69XX card? I'd like to know if any tangible performance increase can be realized through this partnership or should I just start preparing for Brazos?
The projected Rig:
AMD A8-3850
GIGABYTE GA-A75M-UD2H FM1 Socket
Antec Earthwatts 650W
G.Skill Sniper 1866 ddr3 (2x4gb) 8gb
Silverstone GD05B HTPC Case
Western Digital 2TB Caviar Green SATA II
Lite-On Lightscribe 24x DVD +/- RW
ADATA S510 120GB SATA III SSD
