Guys i will be building a budget gaming pc.... i will be investing 8-10K in processor. Currently i am not seeing any other option other than FX-6300. What i need to know is i can wait for Q1 2017 so can lowest Zen series model be expected under 10K also if someone can explain that will zen be APU or proc like FX series which dont have integrated GPU??
Thank you

Zen FX series processor wont have integrated GPU..
Might be worth waiting for, because the only other option for you would be i3 series and dual cores with 4 threads are still strong but no one knows for how long..
