if you have an APU post your thoughts about them here.
I have an A6 6400K, if all you do is surf the interwebs and that facebook thing or even tweeter it just might be the right cpu for you.
it draws very low wattage, the stock fan is dead quiet at stock and it puts out very little heat. max all stock wattage from the wall was around 100-125
the igpu is fine for that kind of stuff and even watching some youtube is fine.
if you game at all, your right into trouble, I have stuffed a 7970 into the box with it and there is no way on earth to get the little lump to feed the gpu, I have had mine all the way up to 5.2 ghz and it is a hopeless mess at best, so I am sending that card to a very hot prison in mississippi until further notice. the wattage from the wall was around 350 and that's a little steep.
the next card is a 7850, it was a bloody mess right up to 4.8 ghz and the heaven benchmark will run with out all the stutters and stammers, at 5.2 with this card you can sit through it and not have your eyes bleed.
It games fair to poorly with this card because it's just to much card for the cpu to feed. the wattage from the wall was around 225 at 5.2 and around 175 in the upper 4.?s
I think the next card into the chamber will be an hd7770 ghzoc card, this just might be the perfect match for the cpu.
we do have a few more things on the way to bottleneck with it, what you might ask, well how about a gtx760oc card, or a 7970sc card and last, but not least a 770sc card is on the way.
post your apu fun.
