maybe you should go with a 990fx chipset board, a good cheap one is the asus m5a99fx pro r 2.0, make sure it is the 2.0

Honestly 1150 is a flat out better platform for gaming. An 8350 just gets smacked by similarly priced locked i5's. You also don't have any upgrade path in the future with AM3+.

I am trying to be as low price as possible for the rest of this build. Thought about the Pentium anniversary but I need at least a quad core.

similarly priced??? the 8350 on newegg is 120$ THATS A STEAL

 

and still normally it is 200 i think, that is still 50$ less than the 4690k

 

just throwing this out there

yea the pentium just does not cut it on the new AAA titles even with a 4.7 ghz OC, even you you liquid nitorgen the shit out of it , its still a dual core

 

if you want a CPU at the same price as the pentium go for the 860k, its quad core and unlocked

That is more expensive though, I only want to spend $50-$80 on a mobo, unless it has wifi then I will go up to $100 ish.

alright, then most 970 chipset will be fine, the one i recommend is the asus m5a97 R 2.0

vs $150

yea, i plan on getting that one later on the holidays, but if you are a heavy video editor or steamer? then the 8000 series beats any locked i5

 

Edit: the only reason i will get a locked i5 vs an 8000 series is because my case is micro atx

They perform about the same in heavily threaded tasks (like rendering/streaming) but an 8320 is definitely a better value for those things. 

Even if I was streaming/rendering I would still spend the $30 or so premium so I can get that huge gaming performance increase (games like Arma/DayZ/a lot of MMOs/SC2 are apparently unplayable on AMD). Then I'd stream with quicksync.

That processor will be fine lol.. I doubt you'll need that big of a PSU though coolermaster.outervision.com

I see the 8350 at $150 not $120?

quicksync is using the CPU's iGPU to render right?

I already got the PSU and only got one that big because it was $50

Yup, and there's very little performance hit (if at all) at ~2-5k bitrate (which is what most people use for streaming).
