Best FM2 socket AMD APU?

[Lemonade1947]

I'm looking to buy an AMD APU that needs to be good for mid-high graphics on most games.

You won't get high settings, but the A10-6800K will stay above 30 fps at 1080p with medium in games like tomb raider.

With high speed memory and an overclock it should do a bit better.

Also look out for Kaveri early next year.

Yeah, 6800k is the best one. You might be better set to buy a cheaper CPU and a discreet GPU though. You can get a Athlon 750k and an AMD 7750 for only £14 more than the 6800k alone, and that will be significantly better in games.

You can get an FM2+ board like the gigabyte sniper, then pair it with a cheap apu if you need it soon. Then upgrade to kaveri if it seems as good as all the hype.

I have a A10-6800K in my media centre. Plays Fifa, Tomb Raider and Diablo 3 fine on mid to high settings.

Neither of those seem to be GPUs. Am i missing something?

EDIT: excuse me. I searched the wrong section of OcUK. derp.

Or crossfire the 6800k with a 7750... that'd be pretty nippy
