Best CPUs?

[DONCraven]

What are the best CPU for AMD and Intel right now?

i mean more bang for buck best CPUs

[Coombzy]

Consumer wise the Intel 4960X and the AMD FX 9590 (pointless). bang for the buck wise for gaming 4690K and FX 8320.

Purpose? There is no single CPU best for everything.

 

You can go with Intel i7 4770K/4790K/4930K/4960X in consumer; E3 1280 V3 in consumer Workstations and E5 2697 V2 for Professional Workstations/Servers.

 

Since AMD does not make many kinds of processors, FX 9590 is probably the best they can offer.

AMD: 8320 

Intel: 3770K or upcoming 4760K. I never liked the 4770K, it ran hot and couldn't overclock as far as Sandy Bridge or Ivy Bridge chips.

Opteron (server),FX (desktop),A series APU's (desktop) and mobile AMD have the same amount of processor types.

For Intel at least I know 4960X.

i5 4670/4690k or AMD FX 8320/50 but there is no upgrade path with FX anymore so I would go Intel now tbh.

Yeah I know... but none of those are competing in the Intel's market... they are in their own category for people who want either of those things for the cheap.

Intel i5 4670K or the 8320/50 from AMD

Then you want Intel.  Those games don't run very well on AMD.

 

Go for the i5-4670k if you can't wait, if you can wait a few weeks, go for the i5-4690k. 

 

No need for an i7, games don't take full advantage of hyperthreading.  Get an i5 and pair it with the best possible GPU you can afford.
