[Arham_saif]

I am looking to purchase processor and my choice is AMD only as my pocket budget.
what should i buy AMD 8320 or AMD8350?

My other purchasing is:
Gigabyte 990fc gaming MOBO
16GB ram
Nvdia Gtx 1060 6GB

I am looking for gaming or other graphic work

990FX I assume? Never heard of fc...
The 8350 comes at faster stock speeds and in my opinion is quite the beast for a 4 year old CPU architecture. It will be $30 more but the stock performance in my experience is great, plus it makes recommended specs for a lot of games still.

The $110 Core i3 6100 would be better than either, and cheaper.

but i3 is much older processor currently in working on i5. and i need some changes in my system.

Go with the 8350 on passmarks site the score diference is huge compare with the price. I would allso look in to Sapphire R9 Fury Tri-x Nitro OC... i know its an older graphic card but the FPS/ dollar is killing that GTX 1060 and what i've Heard you can't SLI the 1060 and you can buy two of those Fury cards under that price. You still get DX 12 and the Mighty Vulcan on the AMD card.

The i3 is about 4 years newer than the FX.

what do you actually currently have? mobo and CPU, you mention having an i5? There might be a much much simpler upgrade.

Yes it is but its still a low end CPU, good value for Money i agree but not better then the 8350

Not as clear cut as you might think http://www.anandtech.com/bench/product/697?vs=1783 consider it, and you'll have an upgrade path, with the 8350, that's it, it's a dead end after that.

You might be right but then again not the 8350 is top 90 procent of all CPU used with 3Dmark Firestrike, it can be that it is a vary comon CPU but then again it is the most used tool tho compare CPU's and GPU's. Dont missunderstad me i have an I3 in my Asus and its a Mighty CPU but when it comes to multitasking it falls behind my desktop.

Until the OP gives details about their current system it's gonna be hard to help.

The i3 gives better performance in some things, but the i3's better IPC wins for me. That and not investing in a new dead platform.
