But still 8320 and nice mobo overclocks and beats an i5 :S

 

And this conf will be better if you want to stream/record your gameplay at all. 

Im unbiased and I recommend you sticking to the AMD solution. 

 

Cooler? You have several options, Noctua for performance and silence or go Cooler Master for a performance/price one. or BeQuiet can also work, check this out: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/be-quiet-cpu-cooler-bk013

Planning on trying StarCitizen (Highly recommended)? STAR-NR5P-CJFR is my referal link
