AMD's A-Series Range - for HTPC

[Invisible_Jim]

Afternoon,

Wanted to know if any of you had played around with the various A4/6/8 CPU's.
Looking to upgrade my HTPC in the coming months but wavering between the A6 & A8.

Will be mostly for Blu-ray/Vid playback, little or no gaming.
3D Blu-ray can take a running jump.

Weighing up wattage/processing/price.

Any thoughts?
Thanks

AMD Trinity will be out early next year as will Ivy Bridge. ATM,the AMD A4-3400 will do the job and has an IGP similar to an HD6450 DDR3 graphics card.

A6 is overkill for now then?

I'd look to upgrade late this year or early next.
