Sup /g/. My current build consists of a gtx 970 ftw and a fx-6300 cpu. This cpu is shit and I'm going to upgrade this month, my budget is $250. I was considering a fx 8350 and a corsair cpu cooler. Is there any intel cpu and mobo combo I can get for less?

What is dissappointing you? The bottleneck might be somethig else.
No, Intel is NEVER cheaper for overall performance, never ever ever, if you want unbiased benchmarks that haven't been bought by Intel, try cpubenchmark.net, you'll see that Intel wins for single core performance every time, but never multi core benches.
Microcenter in store bundle could save you but doubt you live by one
I'd get the hell away from a 970 IMO
I hit the 4 GB limit on my 380 just playing GTA V and Far Cry 4, Those aren't even really new games.
I'd be fucking pissed if I got 3.5'd

>buy 8350 for $150
>get slightly less performance than a $340 i7

Intel is always better than AMD

>get fx 8350 so you won't need a new mobo
>slap on a hyper 212 evo
>overclock as high as possible
There. Done. No more cpu bottleneck

if you're going to waste money on amd, at least waste less money by buying a 8320e and over clocking that.

>3.5
Multiple games use my full 4GB with no problems, idiot.
Are you hungarian?
if yes. Sorry man
>>51739298
Exactly. I hit almost 4gb playing gta V with some graphic mods and I have never experianced those famous stutters and fps drops. Seriously "3,5 meme" is fucking meme itself

the most jewsish metod of them all, my e7200 beat moble i3 in almost everything, including running viratual machines or games.
Please stop it
