Decisions :(

[.:MARK:.]

Then just get a better board because that one is low end

something like this

http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00545BZOG/

And an ssd if you can because once you go SSD you never go back

[Editie]

Im not trying to start a AMD vs Intel war but every since my first laptop its been AMD. In my opinion AMD Is cheaper and better IMO!

[Editie]

SSDs have faster boot times, access times and faster read, write times right? What size ssd because i have windows 8.1 and i play bf4, rust, dayz And more id only like a couple of games on the ssd. what size like 120 240 etc?

[Xalicor]

your gpu is great for 1080p leave that alone, an ssd is always nice u only need the cooler if u plan to over clock or the tiny fan annoys you with its buzzing, if u insist on upgrading cpu and mobo i can vouch for the mobo its currently in my rig with a fx6300 though i would recomend a fx8320 if u must upgrade (dont listen to the intel guys your fps wont change by any serious amount and your gpu is enough to carry any slight performance difference between a fx8320 and the i5) spend the money saved by going amd and buy a nice pair of headphones ive heard audio technica ath m50x and beyerdynamic custom one pro's are pretty solid headphones at a good price (especially the m50s). thats my recomendation atleast.

a 240gb if u can afford it is a nice size 120gb is fine for a few things but kinda small.

Are you going to get the mobo or not, because if you are not going to get the mobo then choose this, its an extraordinary price... http://www.amazon.co.uk/Crucial-960GB-Solid-State-Drive/dp/B00BQ8RGL6/

If you plan o getting the mobo as well as the ssd then get this one... http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00BQ8RHJ2/

[Editie]

whats the matter with the mobo i picked out it hasnt got to be packed with features like the ROG boards

[Xalicor]

the mobo u picked out is great supports dual 8x sli or crossfire should you ever need it (you dont) plenty of room for expansion cards four ram slots and it looks pretty good two especially if ou still have the stok blue led fans that came  with your case.

[.:MARK:.]

No not really but the board you have is pretty low end and if you have to upgrade anything, Ii would go for the mobo alone.

This is not an ROG board but has enough features that allow you to have a second gpu in the future, which is handy. Also you may need a sound card which has enough power for the headphones you wish to power, which you need PCI-e slots for.

FPS doesn't lie. FPS isn't biased.

so your saying if someone can get a solid 60fps on an 8350 that thats not worth it and they should get an intel cpu and spend more so they can have over 60 fps when 99% of monitors are only 60hz? go look at your numbers mate. you dont buy something because its more expensive for a few frames.

This is one of the reasons why AMD supporters are all just delusional. 

 

1) Spend more? A 4670K is $20 more than an 8350. 

 

2) A few frames? Look at the result again. It's not a few frames. All reputable sites comparing the two put Intel by quite a fair margin ahead, more than 10% in most cases. Remember that most of the comparisons are with the 3570K. The 4670K should further boost this. 

 

3) Yes, an 8350 might be able to get a solid 60 fps now, however, in future titles which are more demanding, Intel will be able to flex its muscles more. 

 

Look, don't even try to say that the 8350 is a reasonable choice against the 4670K. Its IPC is seriously years old. It's worse than the Phenom IPC.

It's like on the same level as the i7 920 from 5 years ago.

and i quote " the IPC is seriously years old"

 

and yet i can still cope, it can still handel, and it still gives intel a run for there money.

 

on a fully optimized game engine 8350 will win against a 4670k.

 

4670k excels in single and odd threaded tasks, where as if its a 4 threaded task the 8350 will win. 

the 8350 is almost 3 years old and yet its still catching up to and sometimes beating a 4670k/4770k.

its cheaper and the price difference for me is actually closer to 60 dollars. 60 dollars will take care of the cpu and cooler.

saying im delusional? i have a 4670k in my system. im happy with it and i still would be if it was a 8350. unlike you im not a fanboy

No it can't. 

 

Don't just make up bogus claims. Prove that it will win against a 4670K. 

 

I gave you almost ten different review sites. What have you provided? Nothing except a bunch of snake oil. 

 

You are not a fanboy, but you're delusional and you're an idiot proven by the fact that you don't understand numbers, you can't spell and can't form coherent sentences.

Calm the fuck down and actually remember this topic is not about this, DO NOT BRING THIS UP ON SOMEONE ELSES TOPIC
