For which system you would pay more? (both 420eur)

[huhlimuhli]

a10 7850k |or| pentium g3420
r7 integrated |or| gtx 750 2gb
8gb 2400mhz |or| 8gb 1600mhz
GA-F2A78M-DS2 |or| GA-B85M-D2V
Everything else the same

Purpose: Gaming with possible upgrades in future.( like r7 240 for dual graphics with apu)

I would go with the Pentium one, it has more focus on the graphics, not on the CPU or ram, and if it's for gaming, that's the point of a build!

If gaming is the sole purpose, better choose g3420.

Because AMD APU's are really not meant for gaming at all.
For example, using R7 240 with intel will be considered to have more performance in gaming than R7 240 with AMD APU.

how about power consumtion?

how about power consumtion?

It's pretty obvious that g3420's power consumption much lower than a10 7850K.

a10 has 12 compute cores and hence it needs more power.

But g3420's single core performance is very high when compared to a10. The high end pc games need the single core performance to be as high as possible.

So, g3420 wins!
