it's not like they're hard (unless it's like $600), I was just being too conservative.  :rolleyes: I didn't even consider an Intel option, lol.

And that's no Fanboyism because you just have to see the benchmarks to realise that this is true. ;)

Thanks man! But from the extra 60$... im just not sure if its worth it for the couple FPS Difference. Thanks For the benchmarks Though!

No worries!

I'll put it this way. If you buy the AMD FX 8350 it's an old GPU (manufactured in 2012) whereas the 4690K was manufactured this year, so you're getting newer and faster technology not to mention a backup iGPU if your dedicated GPU dies. ;)
