Here i am again, asking what to choose - the i3-4130 with an GTX 750 2GB DDR5 TI
OR AMD FX 6300 with an normal gtx 750 1gb or gtx 650 ti 1gb.
I was browsing the internet and a lot of the answers where - the 6300 is better at gaming.
Is the TI version of GTX 750 with 2gb worth it? Or just go with the "better"? proccesor?
I will be gaming on 1300x000 or maybe a bit higher.
And please, don't talk about that bullshit with power consumption like " oh yeah the gtx 750 only takes x watts" or smthing.. What performs the best ?
 
Solution
Allow me to explain,
THE FX 6300 is a 6-core processor while the i3 4130 is a dual core with hyper-threading.
Newer games like BF4, Watch Dogs Crysis 3 will utilize more than 2 cores.
The CPU architecture of Intel's cores are somewhat better than AMD meaning normal computing will be faster with Intel, however, with gaming demanding more and more cores the more CPU cores you have he more future proof you are, the benchmark section of this website emphasizes my statement,
<link removed>
As For the GPUs The GTX 750Ti beats all the others (GTX 750 and GTX 650Ti) but only by a very marginal lead and a overclocked 650Ti could easily equate to its performance for a lower price.The 650Ti and GTX 750 are on Par in performance.This page...
The I3 will win every benchmark which will be related to single core performance, the FX will handle multiple threads and multitasking better. As pointed out earlier I3 now and later you can upgrade to I5 or I7 which is a better upgrade path than AMD has.
 
I will play games like bf4 , call of duty, watch dogs(afcourse on low),maybe thief. at 1300x000 or a bit higher resolution, will the aditional cores help for these games? or the I3's single core performance will be better? :\
And if i go the AMD fx 6300 way, i will loose the gtx 750's TI - , it will be just a normal 750.
 


Please read all of my message : If i go with the AMD FX 6300 i will only have a NORMAL gtx 750.
Its already builded pc's.

So go with the FX 6300 and the GTX 750 over the 650Ti as it is a Maxwell GPU

I put a lot of time into this answer please be kind as to select it best answer if you do feel so. :)

Thats what i wanted to hear about the cpu's cores, thanks!
 


My pleasure.

 

Regardless of what GPU it was the FX would need stronger GPU than 770 to beat the I3!
Same applies to the FX6300 it would loose to the I3 with the same GPU let alone the I3 with 20% better GPU!
 


Well you guys say different things, now it is really complicated, look what gamer2321 said, and wich one is right?......
 
Well look at the links, they are facts! GPU matters more for overall performance in gaming if there is no CPU bottleneck which in either case with those cards is none existent. If you could get the FX6300 with the stronger GPU I would recommend that because of the multitasking capability even loosing a frame of two to the I3 in most.
The I3 has hyper threading so it can handle up to 4 threads so it is not just a dual core.
