FX 6300 or Athlon 860k

[ChrisMorris]

Alright, so I've started the planning process for a new build I plan to do next week or so on and I'm deciding wether or not to go with an FM2+ socket 860k or the AM3+ socket and grab a 6300,
I know with the FX 6300 I'll have more upgrade room because of AM3+/AM3 and I know with FM2 + I'll be at the highest point and will have to switch out the mobo to upgrade from that. I plan on putting a gtx 960 4 gb with the Athlon or Fx 6300 thanks for anyone who can help me

Both are almost the same, even though FX 6300 is a bit faster. My answer is get the Athlon 860k, in this way you'll save money. Athlon 860k is good just as FX 6300.
