5GHz and you'll still be beaten by the i5 in gaming, lol.

 

The FX- 9590, which is basically the same chip you have, but clocked @ 4.7GHz, with 5GHz turbo. And it is beaten by the i5 in gaming, although some titles may favor the FX's 8cores, (BF4, Crysis 3) but overall the i5 is better for gaming.

Shot through the heart and you're to blame, 30fps and i'll pirate your game - Bon Jovi

Take me down to the console city where the games are blurry and the frames are thirty - Guns N' Roses

Arguing with religious people is like explaining to your mother that online games can't be paused...

A little FYI: The OCed 8320 is the 9370, the 9590 is an OCed 8350.

8320 and 9590 are both Vishera, the 9590 is just binned at a higher clock speed. 

 

8320 vs 9590

3.5ghz vs 4.7ghz

 

I was using the 5ghz clock speed as a reference to the i5 OP mentioned, for gaming. And the i5 beats the 9590 in most games, so an i5 would be better for OP.
