What CPU(APU)/MOBO combo for GW2/Diablo 3

[kimmeleh]

Hello, I am starting a new build and I was wondering what the best Mobo/CPU combo would be best for Some modern games such as GW2/Diablo 3. I am not a FPS junkie and don't normally game in 1080P, however I do wish to have enjoyable playable experiences with at minimum MEDIUM graphics settings. I have heard that Intel Processors are faster for single threaded actions(Whatever that means) but is that to say the AMD is terrible? Help please!

In my opinion get a Intel pentium g850 and a amd 7770 and a cheap z68 mobo

Uhmm, tell us your budget and we'd help you easier. A 6670 would be probably be able to give you what you want but I really need your budget.

You could go w/an i3 and an h67 mobo those work fine together. AMD might work but the integrated graphics aren't that great and might be a bit choppy.
