AMD FX-6300 vs FX-6350 vs FX-8320

[spitball91]

I'm wanting to know between these three which is the best for my build.

PSU- Corsair HX850

Mobo- ASRock 990FX Extreme3

Gpu- Asus Radeon R9 280x

Ram- 16 gbs of G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 1600

Just give me your opinions and if you think an Intel would be better feel free to suggest a mobo and a cpu or just a cpu is fine. But if you do please keep it around the same price, thanks guys

Yes, but if you oc a 4670k you will also need an aftermarket cooler aswell. An i3 or 8320? I would go 8320 everytime.[/quotemsg]

That is not the point. If you can afford the CPU + the aftermarket cooler then why not just buy a higher CPU?

That is exactly the point. CPU + aftermarket cooler = better CPU? But with that better CPU you'll also need an aftermarket cooler which might step you up to a better CPU, and it continues.

Also since you asked my CPU cost me £108 and my cooler cost me £20. And the i5 4670k was selling for £165.

here its £110 for 8320 + say £20 for cooler. 4670k is still £170 + that same cooler if you want to oc.

Anyways, CPU demanding or not, I would most likely always recommend an AMD processor for a budget conscious gaming build, partly because they fill the gap between the i3 and the i5 quite nicely, and partly because imo an i3 is not gonna cut it very soon, even with hyperthreading the physical core limitation is going to hurt a gamer pretty badly (just look at some of those insane upcoming games with a 4 core processor as the MINIMUM requirement)

Not everyone is an overclocker, some just want a CPU that performs well at stock.

Well, when I bought my current PC I was certainly considering budget but it ended up turning into a money pit, maybe if I had more knowledge back then, I would have bought a better AMD rig that didn't turn into a money bit and I wouldn't be here right now bitching about it XD
