Main reason I've been looking at APU is because of the Antec ISK 110 Vesa case..

I could make something of a LAN pc with that and have a really portable low-end gaming PC..


As far as the G3258 goes, you may have some issues getting around in Mor Dhona, mainly just minor annoyances for me.. But remember that you can always overclock it if you want to get it proper cooling.
If you end up going for the A10-7850 and OC it, with higher speed ram you'll probably get much better results. I have my APU in a Silverstone ML05, it's a bit bigger but small enough to not standout in the living room and has room for a single slot GPU; initially i was gonna add a discreet R7 250 and crossfire it with the APU but I mainly game on my PC so never ended up doing it. It's true the G3258 with proper Cooling and high OC might not have issues in highly populated zones but I'm wondering if it would just be cheaper to go with an i3 with Hyperthreading instead of spending that extra $60 on high end cooler or a used i5.
