Im going to swap my G4560 processor mobo and ram to an AMD FX 8320e with mobo and ram also. is it a good trade or not?

No. That's a major downgrade. Not only is the G4560 more powerful it is based on a platform with good upgrade options.

The FX series are old, weak and give no upgrade route.

I need more opinions guyss, thankss!

 

[sizzling]

Just look up reviews of the G4560, I'd expect they include comparisons to similar FX8XXX cpus. Remember the (e) FX's are weaker than non (e).

FYI the FX series are based on a 7 year old design, using obsolete socket and last generation DDR3 RAM.
