hi, im planning on upgrading my pc, actually i got an i5 3570 + msi z77a g41... my first choice was i5 4690k + ga z97x sli, but then a friend offer me an fx 9370 + asus V formula z cheaper than "i 5 pack".

extra info: at this moment i got an gtx 760, but i m going to buy a 970 and then another jajaj to get 970 sli

can u help me to choose plz 😀

thanks

That 9370 would be a step down in real world performance over your 3570.
Frankly though you will see only marginal gains from your 3570 to a 4690k unless you are planning on doing some serious overclocking on it.

Now if you are wanting to upgrade board for more features then go for the 4690k.

thanks for the quick answer 😀. and yep, basically i want a better board for sli and new stuff
 
no problems.

Yeah just go for the 4690k then.
The G.B. SLI and Gaming boards are pretty good boards.

The fx-9xxx series chips where AMDs attempt to compete on the higher end with intel and the end result was a high tdp wattage high heat cpu that costs as much or more then an i7 and still performs bellow most i5s
 


as i said i5 was my first option, the amd pack call my attention only for the cheaper price but its okey, so i keep in the blue side of the force jajaja

thanks again master 😉
