need help with gpu

[someguy827]

hello i am building a gaming PC, and i am wondering if there will be a big difference in performance of a sapphire radeon 7870 XT and the EVGA geforce gtx 670 paired up with an FX 6300 or a 8320? thanks

though its in german, you'll see by the benchmarks the 670 is much better in most games.
Sapphire Radeon HD 7870 XT with boost in test

it really would be the same with either cpu you listed . .

If I'm not mistaken the two video cards will perform almost the same, or very very close.
Take a look at the hierarchy chart with this article:

The FX6300 MIGHT have a minor negative affect on the video, but the 8320 won't. If you can afford the extra $40 I'd go with the 8320.
