The thing is that I should download the new BIOS with other computer and make the update from the BIOS menu using, for example, an USB stick. Right?

Oh, also I heard that A10-6800k will support 2400Mhz memory without any overclock. This applies to every Richland-Upgraded motherboard?
Because, at the moment any MoBo I see shows that 2400Mhz 'native' support...

I'm quite confused with those new Richland APU...

Same here, I mainly play Dota2 at this moment and A10-6800k seems to be the best CPU out there for this task. Also still Quad-Core and will handle nicely Darktables, Gimp, Rawtherapee and those photography software out there.

can we just have Kaveri please!

One area were AMD always wins over Intel is upgrades. I'm always glad I can drop at least 2 or 3 CPU generations in the same MB.

I've read about a dozen technical reviews of the new Richland APU's. Based on those reviews, it seems like waiting for the new Kaveri APU might be a better deal. They will be released later this year.

The downside is that the Kaveri APU will require the purchase of a new motherboard. The socket is different.

I think I'm going to wait and build a Kaveri rig instead.

personally i got a 5800K with a vertex 3 ssd and 32GB of ram, its my pc to work my concert/event pics and i love it. fast quad core and despite what benchmark say its plenty enough to work in photoshop .. ok i can have a new I7 cpu but cost 3 time the price. ppl read too much benchmark. day to day, this cpu/apu is perfect. ok sometime i need more horsepower to run a game. this is why ill wait for kaveri and skip the 6800k .. not a big difference between both gen
