choosing a cpu

[computer gamer]

hello guys I am thinking of building my own gaming computer and i would like to ask which cpu to choose AMD A10 5800K or
AMD Phenom II x4 965 or AMD FX 6300

The Fx series processors are crap, I own the 965 and it's pretty good, but I'd save up a little more and get an fx8350. In benchmarks it beats the i7. If you need it right now, definatly get the phenom ii x4 or x6

Out of those three 5800k.... however imo and take it as that, optimal gaming intel i5 3570k or 3770 if building now. I will be upgrading to haswell myself.

But really though whats your budget? I assume intended use is gaming from name alone. It really depends on how much your willing to spend and what gpu you are going to pair it with. If you are doing a budget build you could even try crossfiring the onboard with discreeet graphics dont know the results but its possible.
