Which Amd processor??

[Arjun Sarmah]

Hey guys.. Actually this question is troubling me a lot since the day i thought of a gaming rig powered by amd. I want to build a gaming rig and i am totally confused between amd a10 7850k and fx8320. I also want a discrete GPU to get the best performane. Please help me to find out the best CPU and GPU as well.i am a budget buyer so i cannot exceed Indian Rupees-30000/-.. i have to buy a CPU,mobo,GPU,memory and chassis within this range. So please list out all the items you think would the best bang for the buck.It will be very helpful. Thank you!

the A series CPU's are actually APU's. its a CPU with basic graphics built into the CPU. Both the CPU and built in GPU are kinda weak, they are sharing resources and real estate after all. the FX chips are a PURE CPU. they dont have ANY built in graphics capability whatsoever. if you want to run an FX chip (which as a CPU is considerably stronger than the APU CPU) you NEED a gpu like a 750ti or a r9 270x or one of the many you see on the forums.

APU's are generally a laptop solution, where space is an issue. for a desktop you do NOT want an APU solution unless you are on an extreme budget. a dedicated CPU with a dedicated GPU will be leaps and bounds better.

A10: combines both CPU and GPU on one die CPU is weaker than FX series and GPU is weaker than discrete

FX: Best AMD CPU's better performance than A series no GPU on board.

Actually i dont have enough funds to go for r9 280x so will the r7 260x be good enough to play in mid-high specs with the fx series?

it isnt ideal. the minimum for high end gaming is r9 270x. the r7 260x will require lower resolutions settings and lower texture settings to get decent frames
