Best AMD A Series Processor

[ikanishk]

I'm willing to buy a new pc with amd stuff, so i want to know which AMD A series processor is best to buy?

Current is A10-7870k need fast rams, but if you add a bit more you can buy X4 860k + discrete GPU and you will have better performance

The A10 7870k is the best APU right now, or the A10 7850k for a little less money. but the 7870k is the top tiered out of the box.

should i buy A series or FX for a gaming pc and to do graphic design work?

 

[DeathRabit]

FX for this task and you stared two topic for similar question !

AMD FX for sure, FX-6300 or 8320/8320E will be better than an APU/860K. Pair it with a discrete card and you're golden.
