Hi all,
I'm upgrading my current HTPC and am looking at the AMD APU series. The only thing I will be doing is light browsing on the internet and watching 1080p movies. I've read with the new APUs I would no longer need my graphics card but what level CPU would I need?
Tiger direct has the AMD A6-6400K for $59 which I thought was pretty good. Plus, would the motherboard make a pretty big difference with the performance of the CPU? I've heard to stay away from the A55 boards.
Thanks for your help.
