AMD FX-8350 or intel I5 6500?

[Abxolute]

Both have been very persuading and i love both,but i only need one.i heard that amd is for rendering and intel is for gaming.a little help to choose?

Whatever you say, if that makes you happy.
I know what I got and it's perfect for me.
Buying an (also) obsolete Intel MB for an *old* CPU, what's the difference with buying an AM3+ rig?

Because lga1150 has a great upgrade path. I don't see what you're getting at.

I don't think anyone is arguing here that you aren't happy with your FX system, but rather, that there are similarly-priced Intel options that are better choices.

Now games are GPU bound so it doesn't matter.
