Hi

Can someone please explain what is difference between AMD FX 4000, 6000 and 8000 series expect the number of cores ?
 
I didn't mention this but i mostly game so i wonder what is the difference. because game usually uses maximum of 4 cores and they all got at least 4 cores. Example gta 5 system req. are fx8350 but i dont think that this game uses 8 or even 6 cores. so i wonder why did they but 8350 instead of a 4300?
 


Because the FX 8350 is a little behind in terms of performance. They recommend it because its the only AMD CPU that can run GTA V in a stable manner, and a decent FPS. Anything below the 8350 is considered unstable, excluding the 8320, and since most users of GTA V own intel they really dont have to worry about how bad the performance will be because its Intel.
 


So what u are saying is that i cant run gta 5 even on low at 60fps? (i really hoped that i can run it on high - ultra. Not 60 fps but at least 30fps in high)
If they want the most powerful cpu that amd has then they recommend fx 9000 series or newer apus.
(i have amd fx 6300, radeon 280x 3gb and 8gb ram)
 


You will be able to run it but you wont get decent FPS medium or low settings recommend. Also want to point out the 8350 can run on medium settings 40 FPS minimum. A 6300 will struggle with the game a lot, just because its lower end CPU.
 


why i don't want to believe u.. Everyone since now has telling me and people with same rig that i can run it on high - ultra (Guess i have to find out when the game comes out). But anyways thanks for the help, bro. :)
 


Not saying you should believe me, i'm saying based off other games with the same CPU, and from personal experience. I owned 6300 before.
