Hey I really need some help. So what's the best cpu with integrated graphics for an fm2 board not fm2+, fm2 only cause my board only supports fm2 CPU's

:)

 

How to force windows 11 to use intel integrated graphics for all purpose?

Thanks for reaching out! I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user like you.

To stop using the dedicated GPU, follow these steps:

1. Open the NVIDIA Control Panel.
   
2. Go to the "Manage 3D Settings" tab.
   
3. Set the preferred graphics processor to "Integrated Graphics."
   
4. Navigate to the "Configure Surround, PhysX" tab.
   
5. Set the Processor to "CPU."
   

Please let me know if this method works for you or if you need any further assistance.

 

CPU compatibility

Hi

my Pc, which I built in 2013 has a AMD A10-6800K 4.1GHz Quad Core CPU with a Gigabyte GA-F2A88XM-D3H fm2+ Motherboard.

when ever I run anything intensive, the CPU sits near the 100% mark. I looked on Gb website to see what sort of UG patch existed for the CPU...it lists an A10 8750, which apparently would give little or no improvement. But the A10 6800 is only listed under the FM2 Mobo NOT the FM2 + mono, does this ,Evan I have the wrong CPU installed ?....or am I reading this wrong ?

lastly, can I safely assume that there is not much room for UG for this Mobo, I have 8 GB ram so could go to 16GB & a GeForce GTX 650Ti Boost Superclocked Nvidia graphic card.....

thanks

 

Help me find a graphics card

Hi!

I'm looking for a decent graphics card so I can play some games.
BUT! My PC is not so new and I'm not up to date on the latest cards.

My PC is a custom AMD FM2+ DDR3 build:
Mainboard: GIGABYTE F2A88XM-HD3P
GA-F2A88XM-HD3P (rev. 1.0) | Motherboard - GIGABYTE Global

Memory: Kingston FURYX 4GB x2 1866Mhz (kit)
CPU: AMD A6-5400K Black Edition

This build was originally meant for Windows 8.1 but also runs Windows 10 just fine. Drivers are available for both. I'm fine with either, but of course being up to date is always nice.

So far I've been using the integrated graphics that comes with this CPU/APU.
You can tell I'm not so much into gaming but yet I would now like to play a few games.

I'm looking for support for Grand Theft Auto V (GTA V) and Fortnite specifically. Maybe The Sims 3 and 4 too. Sims 3 plays just fine on the integrated APU graphics too.

I know this rig is now old. I know I should better get a DDR4 build
But I don't have the budget OR the desire just now. So I'd like a cool midrange graphics card that allows me to get the most out of this system.
I know with todays card I will easy bottleneck this system but that's no problem
I will eventually upgrading this PC and I will want to carry my shiny new card over. So please suggest something that would be sensible for a new midrange build too but until then would let me run these games.

I prefer AMD but I'm fine with anything. I trust in cards with dual or more coolers but again, fine with anything.

I plan to spend $200 max. Would appreciate less for sure but I don't want any entry basic level cards or any fanless low profile units. (unless it is really good, I leave it up to you)

Besides not being DDR4 I think it's not a bad PC. I know the processor is an entry level but the RAM is quite there among DDR3 ones.

And there are my gaming requirements. I think they are not that high. These games are not new, besides Fortnite this build was meant to run them with a decent card or maybe with a better processor


Speaking of processor.. Can I keep it or is it absolutely a must to upgrade it right away? If so, does it make any sense in 2018 to get another FM2 (or FM2+) CPUs?
