Win an AMD Trinity APU! - Page 27  

post #261 of 676
When do you next plan to upgrade your Desktop PC?
A: In the next month (not my desktop, but my mom's desktop)

What do you look for when selecting a processor upgrade?
A: Price-to-performance ratio, as well as heat generation and power usage (in that order). Want a good deal, and a stock fan running as quietly as possible

A: When I look for an upgrade I usually look for the best bang for the buck. I currently have a A6-3650 in my HTPC and it works great, but I would like an graphical upgrade on the system which the A10/8 series provides.
