like should i just buy a new motherboard and switch to intel already?
>>52003351
yes
>>52003392
what motherboard should i get and cpu? running a tx 980/FX-8350 build atm
Wait for Zen. It's only 6 more months.
>>52003480
>6 months
Fuck No
Shut the duck up and buy a mac, you don't deserve a computer if you need to ask questions like a scrub bitch
>>52003480
>s-six months guys. it'll be worth your time! i swear!
lmao
>>52003351
If you have a real need for the performance, then probably.
>>52003480
Summit Ridge, AMD's high end desktop CPU line using the new Zen core arch, isn't going to be available until the end of 2016. AM4 boards are launching next summer because AMD is releasing a desktop variant of Carrizo on it.
>>52003532
when i got this pc i honestly wanted to with the intel/Nvidia combo but it had a shitty 750
so i bought the amd/amd combo which was fx-4300+HD7750
>>52003351
It's your money, not ours.
if you want to play games at 60fps then yes get an intel, if your okay with playing games at 30fps then stay with amd.
>>52003993
>>52004484
what mobo and intel cpu should i be looking for? nothing to expensive pls
>>52004508
Core i5 4460 -H97 MOBO
>>52004484
Fucking idiot
>>52004508
get a i5 4690 they are lowering prices i think due to 6th gen release, paired with a gigabyte mobo.
>>52004595
enjoy your bottlenecks
I have an FX 8350 and it runs all my games 60 fps+ expect arma and dayz but those are shit games anyway. The graphics card is way more important than the cpu in modern gaming.
>>52003351
Yeah man i was at where you were a few weeks ago. I didn't have any intel boards around so i had to get skymeme 6600k. Shits way fuckin better than my old 8350 even in shit that uses more than 4 cores.
>>52004688
This
>only Intel processors are good for gaming
>>52004484
You're a fucking idiot.
>>52003504
Are you okay?
>>52004979
>cherry picking
>shilling for AMD shit
>>52004979
>They still put my good ol' X6 1100T in comparison with newer top tier CPUs
wew, just need a new graphic card
>>52004979
>amd being good in literally 3 games
totally worth it right? remember to post the crysis 3 for maximum shill, also avoid arma 3 or anything single threaded
>>52003351
>AMD
Yes it's outdated. Who in this day and age buys an AMD cpu?
LAN EVO IS THE BEST
>>52005139
ITS 2015
>>52005061
ARMA 3 IS SHIT FAGGOT WITH SHIT CURRYNIGGER DEVS
>>52005061
Nothing wrong with amd.
>fx 8320 $210
>i5 4460 $270
If you get the AMD processor it can help you get a better GPU, plus it's unlocked unlike the i5. It's not a bad option. And when a game like crysis 3 takes use of all 8 threads it outperforms most I7 processors too.
With dx12 multicore scaling it'll only get better.
If you have an fx processor there is no need to upgrade for a while. It's still decent.
I use a core 2 duo t7300 with 2gb ram still shut the fuck up bitch nigger
Just get an i7, you fucking poorfags.
>>52004567
>>52004666
Looks Good, will i need to wipe windows and reinstall shit?
>>52005663
I have an 8350 and I upgraded to a 4690. It's a big improvement because it's twice as efficient, produces half the heat, and has nearly twice the single core performance. When applications are still using 3-4 cores max, that kind of boost can give you huge gains, especially in emulators.
I built a second PC around the 8350 and it's still an excellent video encoding box and spare PC.
>>52006073
>4690
is this the 2500k of intel cpus now? or what should i aim for because intel has so many different model numbers and the difference in power between i5 and i7
ayy
>>52006073
>it's twice as efficient, produces half the heat,
Somewhat irrelevant when it's just a fraction of what the GPU consumes. The difference is tiny in a full system.
>and has nearly twice the single core performance.
This is the core of the issue, with some games like starcraft 2 using a maximum of three threads. Those games are in the minority now but it's still important to take into consideration.
>>52003351
Yes.
I'm waiting on zen at any rate nice and slow update
that8350 is fine for most things hell my old as fuck 6100 can blaze though games at 55fps on ultra i cant imagine your cpu going that slow but then again i don't care about le placeboo fps
carrizo has a 370 igpu in it lel way better than last gen apu's
>>52003351
Short answer: No
Wait for Skylake-e and Zen at the very least. Your fx8350 isn't bottlenecking anything at this point.
>>52005167
nuhuh dawg. toyota GOAT.
>>52005059
> 960t/1055 here
Sadly that's really cherrypicked
It's a really well threaded game engine, most games are not however :(
>>52003351
>Using amd anything.
>>52004508
>intel
>not expensive
>>52003351
There is nothing wrong with using an AMD processor.
An fx 6300 paired with a gtx 980 would outperform an i4 4330 paired with a gtx 970, since most games take advantage of multi threads these days.
Plus the fx processors are all unlocked and can overclock decently.
>>52003351
jesus
you're not even asking yourself "do i need better CPU? do i need more processing power?"
instead "hey guys is it outdated? because i'd hate to use outdated hardware, my consumer instincts are going insane"
>>52012612
hes falling for the intel meme like every /g/ tard
>>52010309
>implying
This is what 86 fanboys believe.
>>52003420
8350 outdated??? do you even overclock? pump it up to 5.2 and tell me its outdated. still kills games and compile times for me.
>>52015004
>8350
>5.2
Better hope your PSU, mobo and cooling can handle 200-300 W going into the CPU socket if you didn't get the uber overlord +1 golden sample of the decade.
