QUOTE(Flaming_lion @ Dec 12 2012, 09:46 PM) Budget, I ain't got one but should be less than RM 2k. The bare minimum is that it should be able to play Sim City 5 and Sims 3. Yeap, it was great, until one by one, the games started demanding more. Now, super outdated. lol... Well, i rest my case with this review, hope you can understand what those graph means. http://www.anandtech.com/show/6396/the-vis...fx4300-tested/5» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

QUOTE(Flaming_lion @ Dec 12 2012, 09:56 PM) Errrrr... Really that bad huh? Looks more like i5 3570 is a good deal I guess. How does the A10 fit into these charts? http://www.anandtech.com/show/6347/amd-a10...esktop-part-2/6

QUOTE(Flaming_lion @ Dec 12 2012, 10:06 PM) Yikes. I'm very disappointed with AMD after seeing this. Looks like I'm going to get i5 3570 instead after looking at this. Do you suggest I wait for AMD to release anything? Depend on your current hardware can re-use or not. Head here [Official] Rig Suggestion Thread V2[Official] AMD is quite good in GC department.

QUOTE(Flaming_lion @ Dec 13 2012, 11:29 AM) The only current hardware that I can keep will be my present 1TB HDD. lol... Thanks for the link! So, APUs are for movie and basic gaming? Will games like Sim City 5 and Sims 3 run on them? So, the A10 will be able to handle Sim City 5 and Sims 3? Even FIFA too? So all the statistics and graphs are just perception issues? So, as the resolution increases, the game will run smoother? Is that what you're saying?  In low detail to medium setting to get acceptable FPS, if you don't want candy feature of game. Of course not many game depend on CPU, many depend on GC, still if the user want to play CPU-bound game like Starcraft II and Skyrim you now know how to choose best processor from that review.

QUOTE(Flaming_lion @ Dec 13 2012, 11:42 AM) So, just out of curiosity, is the limitation because of the GC capabilities or the CPU capabilities? Again, depend on the game itself if CPU bound or GPU bound. QUOTE(rav3n82 @ Dec 12 2012, 10:46 AM) Lately, i observed that even some FPS games (e.g Far Cry 3) are now a little more taxing on the CPUs. I foresee that moving forward, we would start to see more games fully utilizing all four cores. Core i5 is really a much better option, if you really can afford to squeeze in the 20% extra. It would be able to last you longer, think about it. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
