For gaming its a fairly easy pick with the dual core I3-4130 which will be about ~10% better, however in some multi-tasking applications that can utilize more cores the hex core FX-6300 will be better. The A10 is a similar story to the 6300 except with less benefit in multitasking and a useless on-chip gpu.

The i3 is a touch better but costs more.

 

[SkyLinerSL]

so i3 4130 could do better at battlefield ?

FX-6300 and overclock !

One thing you could do, if you want to go for an upgrade-able route, is to get the i3 and a z97 motherboard now, and then get an i5 later on. The i3 should be able to play battlefield decently.

Otherwise the fx6300/8320 would be good.

If he's looking at low end cpu's I doubt he'll be looking at good mobos.

I'd recommend an i3 + B85 combo.

Most of it depends on the budget.

 

[SkyLinerSL]

i got budget for those, i would just buy the best between them

i did some google, benchmarks said i3 is better, but many people said that amd fx6300 is better too, more cores = better :/
so i did put a gaming on the title so that itll be easier to fit the right processor for me coz gaming is mostly what i do on my pc

by that logic an fx8350 should be performing twice as fast as an i5 since it has double the number of cores. it doesn't.

 

[Calnin]

For games that use more cores, the fx 6300 would be better. Otherwise the i3 would do just fine. The i3 + H97/Z97 motherboard would give some kind of upgrade path for the cpu in the future when you come across money for an i5.

Forget the A10-6800K.

The FX-6300 is a good CPU for a few tasks, and Battlefield 4 is one of them, but most games will do better on an Intel CPU.

The i3-4130 is your best option, and will perform best overall.
