no reason to upgrade from devils canyon or haswell if strictly gaming

If i had to get a new CPU right now my money would go towards AMD RYZEN R7 series.

coming from some one who only owned intel processors
Intel Pentium 4 Processor 1.60 GHz
Intel Core 2 Quad Processor Q6600
Intel Core i7-4790K


The scenario when/if I'm building the red harbinger look a like deskPC I would use this as a server.

@op
I've had an A-12 amd which is an upgrade over yours and while it's fine for strictly basic tasks, i do not reccomend to buy any of those APUs.
Reason is really low optimization for graphical and computational processing, performance is subpar to theoretically lowerspecs counterparts, making it a great delusion. Also, those laptops are mostly tdp-limited.

Go for something else, not rog at all costs...

Just pull a standard 'Newegg' and overpay for the A10, all the while touting how much of a deal you got on it, then sell it for pennies on the dollar and then overpay for the ROG.

So you either don't want the best performance possible while gaming or you do a lot of multitasking. Which is it?
