Very affordable, great performance
I was trying to wait until AMD released Zen, but my sons computer died. I bought this 860k for $63 shipped paired with a gigabyte f2a88xm-d3h and 8gb of ddr3 g.skill 2400. Everything hooked up, it booted and shutdown 2-3x before posting i assume it was trying different memory settings for the ddr3 2400. when it finally did boot it was at 1600mhz, i installed windows 10 everything was detected perfectly and up and running within 30 minutes. Then i rebooted, went into the bios enabled X.M.P and now the ram is at 2400 and running stable. I used passmark to compared against my stock clocked AMD A10-5800k (water cooled) I only point this out so that it doesnt run into thermal throttling that a stock heatsink might. It scored 4638 for the CPU portion of Passmark. This 860K scored 5700~ at 1600mhz memory. memory at 2400 it rose to 5900~Also, the stock heatsink is so small, the cpu idles over 50C and i wouldn't be surprised if its slowing down to stay within its thermal limitations. I play a lot of games and my A10-5800k has been all i needed (paired with a 970 GTX video card) I can crank the settings and get smooth framerates. 45fps+ at 1080p
