AMD 8350 vs 9370

[dark_xzyph3r]

What should I go for? And no I will not go for Intel because I need the 8 cores and to go with Intel it would cost me an arm and a leg.

8350 and overclock it?

[007agentHP]

get a xeon 1231v3. it will beat amd 8 core by miles

 

bu if you must, the 8350 and overclock it

[Dabombinable]

What 8 cores? http://www.extremetech.com/computing/138394-amds-fx-8350-analyzed-does-piledriver-deliver-where-bulldozer-fell-short

Its only got 4 modules.

Like I said, 8 cores are required But I might go with the 8350 then.

8350 hands down. Just overclock it if you need it to be like a 9000 series chip.

FX-8320E.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, it won't fry a lower end motherboard.

It doesn't have 8 cores. It has 4 modules 8 ALU-which can't function as independant CPU like actual cores.

Because I do Audio and Video work and I need all of the cores I can get.

Because I do Audio and Video work and I need all of the cores I can get.

even with an amd 8 core, its been shown that in those things, an intel quad core has 20% more performance and a hyperthreaded quad core would win even more

Give me some proof and I will think about it.

They aren't cores, and 8 thread FX 8350: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/jTCycf

Xeon E3 1231 V3 which is better alround: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/f8B4P6

Why?

[Agazed]

Why 8 cores?

 

Fast single core > Slow multiple ones

It isn't for gaming it is for Production so that does not really apply there. Atleast when I was doing my tests it didn't

 

 

Why?

 

Production work, Audio and Video.

Xeons are still better.

Either way, I was asking out of two processors what I should get.. Not what I should get and disregard what I said in the topic.

Yeah I know.. I just want an AMD system. I don't care if Intel is better or anything I just want to know out of the two what I should get.

It really depends on the workload. I know for video rendering, my 8320 smashes my Q9550(which is one of the things OP wants to do).

 

Edit: WHoops, read that as Intel Core 2 Quad.

 

Edit#2: AMD's 8 cores still outperform Intels quads(i5) in multithreading, the recent 6000 series breaks this though(however costs much more).

If you've decided completely for amd get a 8350-8370 and overclock it to a 9370. It'll save some money because a 9370 is just an overclocked amd 8350.

You'll need a good 990fx motherboard.

Yeah, And I have tried Audio editing on my Xeon quad core and it just sits at 100% all the time and stops playback saying that I need a more powerful proc (It doesn't actually say that)

Yeah I am just trying to not spend alot of money on my cpu for what I do

Purchase an 8350 and a decent cooler. You should be able to hit 4.8Ghz no problem; however, AMDs processors were made in 2011, and the "8 cores" are really just 4 modules split. I don't know enough about audio work, but intel would do you much better. Then again, you clearly don't want intel.

 

I'm still rocking my 8320 since 2011.

I own enough Intel Procs and my friends 8350 does soooooo much better in Audio and Video work than my Xeon does. Thats why I want to go with AMD with this build.

What is your budget ? What else do you have ? What previous quad xeon core did you have ?

 

Xeons are generally better, you can get a cheaper motherboard for it.

 

Do you have a motherboard currently? For either AMD or Intel?

It depends on the Xeon, and hyperthreading would help a whole lot.
