amd fx 6300 or fx 8320

[Viper X]

Hi guys

Here are the choices :

amd fx 6300 + r9 280x or fx 8320 + r9 280

Which is better ?

fx 8320 + r9 280

For gaming go for the fx 6300 + r9 280x.

For MMOs and multi-tasking go for the fx 8320 + r9 280.

I'd say get the FX 8320 and R9 280

I want the pc for gaming

For gaming only, a 6300 would be fine for games that use 6 cores or less. However, the 8320 is a great choice if you want to have a more flexible CPU. Plus the extra 2 cores helps for background tasks.

the power of fx-8320 and r9 270x

Both FX6300 and FX8320 will be great in a proper build: Good motherboard, PSU and cpu cooler for overclocking.

This is the most important thing w/ FX cpus.

imho If you could not build it right just go Haswell.

I currently run a 8350 @ 4Ghz and a 270x and run every game I own maxed out and well above 60 FPS... and I am a huge gamer. I'd say go for 8320 and a 280 or 270x

You'd be better off providing statistical data to back up anecdotal evidence at the very least. Otherwise It's hard to believe an opinion based on words.

According to benchmarks
http://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/battlefield-4-vga-graphics-performance-benchmark,7.html

at 1080p you can expect around 53 fps with a high end intel processor on BF4 (a demanding game) with the 270x. You should expect around 43 with an amd processor. I would not call that fluid.

In your price range, I would upgrade to an intel processor. AMD is going to hold the build back in next gen games and more so even further down the line.

OK guys thanks for your responses

I got another choice >>>

Intel core i5 4570 3.2 ghz + gtx 760

 

[ifreestylin]

I just switch from the AMD FX 6300 @ 4.5ghz to the i5 4690k and it feels like i'm just built my gaming PC.

Check out these benchmarks

Better of getting the i3 4330 then get an i5 or i7 when you can.
If you plan on sticking with a the R9 280 for a while, the FX 8320 will be fine but anything higher than the R9 285 go intel (from experience).
