Gamerxz010 · Feb 24, 2015

Get fx-6300 or you have some extra bucks then directly go for Fx-8350

It seems that my mobo cant support Fx-8350 :/

That motherboard only supports processors with a maximum TDP of 95W, so an FX-8350 is off the cards. The best processor you can get is an FX-8370E, but the FX-6300 is a more suitable choice.

Wouldn't 8-core be much better than 6-core.?

mrt3 · Feb 24, 2015

your mobo supports 8350

Gamerxz010 :

Not if it throttles to all hell and back while you use it

Besides, most games can't even use 4 cores properly let alone 8

Gamerxz010 :

8350 also
coz 8350 comes between these two, Got that?

LucoTF · Feb 24, 2015

That 'E' means low power version. That Cheap Biostar motherboard does NOT support 125w CPUs, hell I wouldn't be surprised if it throttled the 95w CPUs at stock speeds!

YA.. thanks bro.. 😉

mrt3 :

Did you even check the supported CPU list before you posted that comment?

The 8350 does NOT come between an 8320E and an 8370E. You're giving the OP incorrect advice and if they buy an 8350, it could irreversibly damage the motherboard.

125W CPUs are NOT supported.

mrt3 · Feb 24, 2015

bicycle_repair_man :

it consumes only 88w btw

bicycle_repair_man · Feb 24, 2015

mrt3 :

No FX processor consumes 88W; it's 95W, 125W or 220W depending on the model.

http://www.amd.com/en-us/products/processors/desktop/fx#

88W may be the average power consumption, but that doesn't make it compatible with the OP's motherboard.

mrt3 · Feb 24, 2015

bicycle_repair_man :

88w on stock freq :bounce:

and upto 125w for OCing :lol:.

bicycle_repair_man · Feb 24, 2015

I give up, even with proof directly from the manufacturer staring you in the face, you still can't see how wrong you are. You're either stubborn, idiotic or trolling.

At any rate, I'm done flogging a dead horse.

bicycle_repair_man :

you as*h*ole dont have simple logic, 8370e is a modified version of 8350, but with less OC ability and less TDP(Therma Design Power) Not Less Power Consumption at similar Frequencies

Gamerxz010 · Mar 2, 2015

Guys , I have chosen three processors. FX 8370e , FX 6300 , FX 8300... Now among these which is the one that is best...

mrt3 · Mar 2, 2015

Gamerxz010 :

get FX 8370e better overall performance than mention CPUs

madmatt30 · Mar 2, 2015

6300 would be my choice ,highest base clock out of the 3 - as stated before 6 or 8 cores makes no difference in gaming.
The 8370e would prob perform very slightly better but is not worth the price premium.
Either way ,with a 6300 installed the 750ti becomes the weakest component by far.

Your mobo is in this tier so it is rly bad one

Tier Two: Poor quality. Bad power phases and no heatsinks on VRM make this tier more like ‘lowest’ tier for AM3+ boards, not advisable for FX 6 or 8. No Crossfire/ SLI capability. In all probability, you’d not want to have them unless you must get one of them.

Actually , I was also gonna upgrade my mobo to ASUS M5A78L-M LX V2 .

Creme · Mar 5, 2015

The FX-6300 is the best bang for the buck, especially if you're not into editing or encoding video.

The alternative would be a 8320E or 8370E, which can be overclocked to 8350 levels with lower voltage than an actual 8350. I have my 8320E at 4ghz at 1.250v.

In any of these situations, it's highly recommended to get heatsinks for the VRMs, something like the Enzotech MOS-C1 or C10.

st3v30 · Mar 5, 2015

Gamerxz010 :

These are poor quality mobos it is same you already have so no point in upgrade.You will need one from this tier to make it work good and if you want to OC

http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/id-2384024/motherboard-tier-list-970-chipset.html

Read this carefully and try to pick good one,believe me bad mobo can make your pc in pile of problems so dont get anything you see out there that is just compatible with your CPU.Maybe if you go Intel you can buy rly cheap mobo and still be fine but with AMD you rly need to be careful.

madmatt30 · Mar 5, 2015

cheapest board I would use for an fx 6 core or 95w 8 core - not the best but definitely the cheapest
http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4305#ov

its one downfall is sata 2 ports only - it does a thoroughly decent job with the 6300 though & will allow overclocking upto the 4.5ghz mark if necessary
