Upgrade to FX 8350?

[Luego4me]

I'm currently using an FX 8150. After having read the reviews on the new line of chips they just put out, I was thinking about switching over to a 8350. Do you guys think the improvement is worth the money for the upgrade, or should I just not bother?

its up to your preferences. if you think its worth to spend $219.99 to see no real world difference go and buy it!

So, the 15% increase wouldn't really be noticable then? I'm not trying to be sarcastic or anything, I'm still new to the PC building world. I thought it might make a difference in gaming.

you cpu is fine for gaming! if you are not happy with the performance just overclock your cpu and if it doesnt help then your gpu is holding you back!

I am upgrading more for the fun of it and to toy with a new processor My 8350 will be in Friday it looks like. I like my 8150 a LOT more than my 1100T. Currently I have my 8150 at 4.8ghz. So hopefully will break 5ghz with the 8350 but who knows.
