Planning to have a better build for my PC

@senpai91,

That too would have to be my obvious stand. The other side of the coin though is that the APUs are the cheapest 4-core out there, at least available in Cebu. If only the FX-6300 is available there, it would be a better choice. I recommend the 5600k for the CPU part of it and not the GPU. APUs by themselves and without a discrete GPU cant be a serious gaming setup, even if you consider the crossfire feature.

And yes, with the TS'es video card and the level of games he plays, the E5500 is sufficient for now.

(And thanks for the plug bro. Im far from being a pro though. )

True, but it still can be atleast a budget gaming rig perhaps
Glad im learning a lot on the AMD side now hehe

dont go bling.. if you plan to upgrade.. if bag.o lang ka aning bisyoha, you have paths to consider.. either go OC, go bling, or go low power.. pick a path, then transfer once mka.master nka ug isa ka path.. its important to master one aspect since m.compare nmn gud nimo ang performance/watt/bling factor.. and decide which you would prefer..

Yes, especially the 5600k. If short ang budget for a discrete graphics card, a 4-core APU's iGP will do for the meantime. Until such time nga naa na kay ikapalit ug VC, true, wala nay gamit ang iGP ana pero at least you are left with a quad-core. And overclockable too, which i think is on of the best parts of having a cheap AMD.

If only there is an quad-core Intel at that price range, i wouldnt bother turning head to AMD's side. Of course one could contend with second hand Lynnfields, but the same is true with the other camp. Naa may mga second hand Phenom II X4, then there are the cheaper 2-core unlockable Deneb chips and so on and so on. Its an endless cycle really if we try to think of it.

The A10-6800k can never replace the fx 6300 just as the fx 6300 can never replace the 6800k. Each are intended for a specific use. Personally I wouldn't recommend the 6800k. The 5800k is just as fast and around 1k cheaper. These apus are intended for gamers on a budget. For around 18k you can do med-high 720p games and even experience 1080p gaming at low settings. And you get the advantage of multi thread capabilities which is starting to be the trend in games and apps. A privelege that is lacking from competition. It is wrong to say nga nabitin ka sa imong apu. I've encountered people like that and I just give them the wtf look. That's obviously a product of poor research or the usual greed for sales sa part sa mga gapamaligya.

pero kung cpu to cpu lang mas nindot jud ang FX 6300...i think mas cheaper pa jud ang FX 6300 comapred to A10-5800k or 6800k
