does gtx980 and fx 8350 properly works togethere?

I wanna buy a gtx980 and fx8350.Is there any problem with the fx8350?will it be all right?

 

[Benab3]

yes, as long as your PSU is okay there should be no problem at all

 

[rapidflyhigh]

yes it will work great

 

[waaiful kabir]

bottle neck?

bottle neck?

No.

 

[rapidflyhigh]

bottle neck?

No.

a little but will not be noticeable

Probably around 15-20% less fps than an I5 4590k on average. Depends on which games you play, battlefield works great on both. For fsx, metro, ac:u or mmorpgs, it will show noticeably less performance than you might expect.

Yeah but future titles will work a lot better. Game bottlenecking CPU is an issue with FX processors, hopefully their new lineup is an improvement...

@rapidflyhigh The 8350 can run a single 980 without any bottlenecks, if a game is multithreaded or not is a different matter.

But to even call something this small a bottleneck isn't exactly right, imo.

Losing up to 50 fps out of 150 compared to an i5 isn't a bottleneck?
Also no, there is absolutely no reason why fx cpus would fare better at gaming in the future. There is no limitation holding off developers to properly optimize their game, as you can see in a few titles such as battlefield 4 or tomb raider. The broad majority however doesn't spend a lot of time (well, why would they, time spent for no immediate gain) and therefore their games don't run very well on cpus with such awful single core performance.

It's not losing up to 50 FPS. The highest is around ~40 FPS. FX 8350 at stock compared to i5 at 4.7 GHz. These benchmarks make no sense.

So you can't see the i5 4590 there? I think the benchmark serves the purpose I was posting it for, proving that the fx does in fact bottleneck a gtx 980.

I'll be honest (& I am a fan of the fx 8 cores)
I personally think you'd be wasting money on a 980 UNLESS youre pushing resolutions of 1440p+.
If you're running at 1080p (irregardless of htz rating) then stick to a 970 & save yourself $250.

Absolutely true, for a cost efficient high end gaming rig, nothing beats an i5 4590 and a gtx 970 at the moment.
