Wich budget cpu for gaming?

[thiemo56]

Wich would be the best budget cpu for gaming?
I was thinking about an intel pentiul g860 or a amd athlon 2 x4 750k?
it wil probaly paired with an hd7850.

Phenom II x4 965 , fx 6100, fx 4170, i3 2120, i3 3220, fx 6300

Go with intel g860. It is best cpu under 100$ and beat all other cpu in this range

 

[thiemo56]

Ty for your response ashis,i didnt even knew there was a never version.

 

[gunfun007]

i think a amd fx 8320 is good for the price.

 

[thiemo56]

I know but i think it is a bit out of my budget.
What do you guys think about the amd athlon 2 x4 750k?

 

[ASHISH65]

I would simply get intel g860.remember in gaming gpu matter more than cpu

 

[thiemo56]

Would an overclocked athlon2 x4 750k be enough?

please go with intel because u have better options to upgrade later on go with the i3 then u can upgrade to i5 or i5 i made a mistake of going with amd its isnt really bad but intel is better :/

Not really especially when a 7850 is with a pentium g series cpu there will be like 30-40fps less due to the slow cpu.

The Athlon is a bit slower than the FX 4300 but a lot cheaper and the Pentium is a bit slower than the G2120 and again a lot cheaper.

As you can see, the Athlon is clearly the better choice and it will NOT bottleneck your HD 7850 in any significant way.
Remember than the card they're testing these CPU's with is twice as powerfull as yours, so the difference you'll see from upgrading from the Athlon 751 to a Core i5 will be twice smaller.
