[Evgenij Gotka]

Tomorrow i'm going to buy my new computer and i'm still not sure what pc should i get , i play on 23" inch monitor 1920 x 1080 ,
games like DOTA 2 , Betafield , WOW , Need For Speed , Call of Duty , Assassin's Creed , and others ...
I've been thinking about these 2 pc:
PC 1 : MB : GA-Z87X-UD3H
CPU : I5 4670k ( i will oc latter when i get coler )
GPU : R9 270x
HDD : 2 TB Seagate 7200 rpm 64 mb
CASE : Termaltake S31 Urban
RAM : 4 GB 1600 (i will upgrade latter when i get money )

OR :

PC 2 : MB : GA-990FXA-UD5
CPU : FX 6300 ( with after market coler for OC )
GPU : R9 280x
HDD : 2 TB Seagate 7200 rpm 64 mb
CASE : Termaltake S31 Urban
RAM : 4 GB 1600 (i will upgrade latter when i get money )

Well i am running a xfx r9 270x and it is awesome, Ive had it 2 days now and love it. I play BF4 online on ultra settings at 65 FPS at the lowest recorded...

IMO- Id go with the AMD anyways (AMD fanboy) because your running a AMD GPU and you can use the catalyst control center for both your cpu and gpu... not to mention cpus and gpus from the same company seem to work better together...

i am not a fanboy and have intel but i think you should go with the amd build, the 270x will need to be replaced before the 6300, especially if you overclock.

Hmm , okey 1 more q , if i overclock AMD 6300 on 4.3 - 4.6 will there be much difference in games like dota 2, LOL , WOW ,(RTS games and MORPG) between FX and i5 , because there are more CPU demanding and they only use 1 or 2 core max , because i know i5 have much stonger single core . Sry on my bad eng ! Tnx !

 

[sheag123]

ya you will see a difference, those games arent very demanding though so you wont be less than good fps on those games.

Ty on ur answer , i need to know if i run i5 on stock wih stock cooler is it gonna be very hot ? Because i heard Haswell is running very hot ! Will i have problems with it on stock ?

 

[Evgenij Gotka]

And what is the normal temperature for stock Haswell ? ( i5 4670k in this case ) .

 

[sheag123]

not overclocked with stock cooler it goes to 75 or so in extreme cases

I just ordered the R9 270X with and AMD FX 6300 processor, whats your processor?

So should i be okay with that for couple of months until i get cpu cooler ? I dont know exactly why ,but i like the intel configuration more , its more balanced and its 2 years newer then amd's, and ofc 72 % stronger sing core. I am only afraid of temperatures on intel .

 

[sheag123]

yes the temperatures will be perfectly fine with the stock cooler at stock clocks.

Thanks for all answers. I think you deserve "best solution" !
