[SOLVED] Best CPU for FM2+ socket?

[HakaseLA]

Is it the A10-6800k, which has the fastest clock speed? For "gaming" and graphic design (VFX; 3d animation, etc). Not to be confused with FM2, this is FM2+

PS: I know I have to upgrade the Mobo but in this case... I love the incredible compatibility for the REALLY old software as well as the new, aid by a non-bottlenecking dedicated GPU, and an integrated GPU with proper VESA support (the way I need it, at least)

A10-6800K is FM2 socket CPU, but will work on FM2+ socket MoBo.

A10-7890K is FM2+ socket CPU, with clocks of 4 Ghz and turbo up to 4.3 Ghz.
Best is PRO A10-8850B, also FM2+ socket, with clocks of 3.9 Ghz and turbo up to 4.1 Ghz.

Do note that CPU frequency alone doesn't make it the fastest/best CPU. E.g PRO A10-8850B has 200-300 Mhz less frequency than A10-6800K but is better performing despite slightly lower clocks. While on single-thread workload, PRO A10-8850B is equal to A10-6800K, CPU as a whole (multi-thread), is ~15% better than A10-6800K.
