I5 4670k vs FX 8350 ??

[montosaurous]

Get an FX 8320... It's about $40 cheaper than the FX 8350 and can be overclocked to reach 8350 speeds.

If you get the 8320, will you (op) be able to afford a 7970? If you will that's the way to go.

I was also curious about this. My computer uses are gaming (mostly MMO's GW2 and BF3), music production (Ableton Live) graphic and video rendering (CS6) and coding (JCreator and Adobe Dreamweaver)

The CPU's I am looking at are the 4670K, 4770K, and the FX 8350
For graphics I am going with the GTX 780
Mobo Gigabyte Z87

I plan on building it today any help would be greatly appreciated.

In your position I would have gotten the 3570k then, I still can't justify the price of haswell and z87 mobos. Haswell (with cpu and mobo) costs about $50 more than ivy.

EDIT: what do you do other than gaming? to be more precise, give a worst case scenario of how much multitasking you'd like to be able to do.

Probably playing a game whilst surfing the web and using Skype plus fraps

If you can afford a 780 I don't see why you wouldn't go with an i7. However, if you're overclocking, I would recommend the 3770k over the 4770k because (if ocing) it performs just as well if not better for less money.
