First post....
I know Richland and Kaveri will both work on an Fm2+ mobo, but will a Richland heatsink work on a Kaveri? I am building an A8 6500 build to upgrade my Athlon X2 as I couldn't wait and wanted a low cost solution. Later I will upgrade my power supply and do a Kaveri in a year or two. Got an FM2+ mobo but can't decide whether to cheap it out with the stock heatsink ( no OC on the 6500) or get a better one. If I can get one now that will later work on the Kaveri I'll get a good one now
