    Use the latest AMD driver, it's obviously something on your end.

    Think about it.
    Sandy Bridge right now OC'd won't be holding anything back.
    And Skylake is just too far ahead IPC wise.
    AMD will be relevent again if everything else is fixed... The high latency cache + around 25-30% IPC increase will bring it to around Ivy/Hw
    DDR4 does have it's benefits too.
    I am rooting for them to come out with an impressive CPU with Zen.

    Tbh,i hope AMD Zen catches up with haswell IPC, even Ivy bridge would be good enough for AMD to come back. Back then when i built my pc, i was between the phenom II x6 or the i5 2320 that i am still using now, and i would like to use an AMD desktop cpu someday. For the time being, i only use their gpus (6790--> upgrade to 280x) and i was never let down and an APU on my laptop (a8 5550m). But what i said is true, if Zen catches up to haswell/ivy bridge  and keeps the low prices, it will be a win for AMD in their current state

    You won't win an argument here, it's like arguing with a door that shuts everytime the concept of thought is presented to it. Zen is released next year 3rd quarter, let's just wait until then. As for shit CPU's I'll go back to using my 8350 that's not necking anything in my system because I spent time overclocking it.

    I've got it both on PC and PS3, PC version runs at 60 FPS and I think can play at 4k. I know it can run at 1080p
     
    Also to note, the system requirements on steam aren't true, I had more than recommended requirements and still couldn't play the game at 60 FPS til I upgraded to my new computer.

    FX isnt really dead.. he just didnt look very hard for a board for it.
    There are low end boards with support for 2133MHz RAM... like i said, he didnt really look for them. Or didnt look in the right places. 
    FX still beats out or matches the 4130... and the 6100 is on average 5-7 FPS faster....
     
    Again, BOTH the i3 4130 and i3 6100 is more expensive. In particular, the 6100 is "more so" because atm, the cheapest B150 mobo is 63 USD... yes there is a couple of H110 boards. But feature wise they are so shit compared to the 13 USD more expensive B150 board that they aint even worth picking up.. Even in a budget setting.
     

    Also, cheap and fast DDR3 with great latency = cheaper then DDR4 with high speed and medium latency.
    2400MHz CL10/11 DDR3 will wreck any CL13-15 2400MHz DDR4 kit both in price and performance.
     

    also, FX is unlocked.
     
    Also, a i5 4460 + cheap B85 board is slightly more expensive then the Skylake i3 + B150 board, but an order of magnitude faster.
     
    FX board able to handle 2133MHz RAM:
     
    MSI 970A - > 53 USD
    http://pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-motherboard-970ag43
     
    Biostar TA970 -> 61 USD... i know, Biostar. But according to this thread: www.overclock.net/t/946407/amd-motherboards-vrm-info-database
    It will handle even mild OC. Also VRM has heatsinks, so i have faith that it will handle a 6300....

    FX baord able to handle 2000 MHz RAM: (prolly 2133 also, if you add a tiny bit voltage to the SB
    Gigabyte 970A UD3P -> 77 USD one of hte best budget OC boards for FX. This can handle a OCd 8350
    http://pcpartpicker.com/part/gigabyte-motherboard-ga970aud3p
     
    yeah, they are not cheap.. but sub 50 USD boards, even on the intel side, is abysmally bad. SO its better to spend a little, then just cheap out and buy some shit that "works"...
    Just because it works doesnt mean it works well or has any future expandability.
     

    as for RAM:
     
    CL9 2133 DDR3 40 bucks
    http://pcpartpicker.com/part/gskill-memory-f317000cl9d8gbxm
     
    CL15 2133 DDR4 45 bucks...
    http://pcpartpicker.com/part/crucial-memory-ct2k4g4dfs8213
     
    DDR3 even has heatsink...
    CL9 will wreck a CL15 stick in performance any day... i know DDR4 has improvements in other internal latencies that are NOT listed. But even then, CL9 is too low latency for that to matter...
    CL15 DDR4 is around CL12-13 DDR3 in terms of improvements in latency... So stick with DDR3 for absolute performance on the lower end...
     

    yes, because at the time of making that video, the price difference between 1866 and 2133/2400 made it a "actual investment" to get 2133/2400... 
    Now, the cheapest 2x4GB 1866 kit is 36 bucks, while the cheapest 2400 kit is 46 bucks...
    the sad fact is that BOTH the cheapest 1866 and 2400 kits are CL10... so the 2400 will be way way faster no matter what. Even latency "improvements" will help the 1866 kit...
     
    As for mobo support. Yes, you generally need to shell out a little bit more to get a mobo that supports higher RAM speeds. But like i showed with the FX boards above. no, it is NOT a huge amount. It is pretty similar for intel. Pay 75 bucks for a intel board and you get quite a "board" really...
     
    Although, the "REAL" joker here is AM3+....
    If you can get ahold of a ASRock 970 Performance/ASRock Fatal1ty 970 Performance (some places use different names for the board. its the same baord)... then you got a damn good board... its been in and out of stock selling for between 71 and 95 bucks...
    Supports 2400MHz RAM, 64GB memory and has a M.2 slot (PCIe Gen2... so max 1500 read speeds and 900 write speeds)...
