amd is better for gaming but

if you go intel and stick with the 750 ti and no SSD 

you can upgrade to a 960 down the road/Get a SSD

but i personally recommend you get the AMD System because you will enjoy playing games more.

[cesrai]

AMD system.

[kameshss]

AMD IMO!

[Tedster]

AMD system in this comparison.

the intel one has better cpu(even better than the fx 8 cores) and the amd one has better gpu.the intel one cost 549.so just get the intel one and add the r9 280 over the 750 ti and you fit the 600 budget since you can costumize it

 

 

amd is better for gaming but

an ivy bridge is better than amd cpus for gaming. this is even better since its haswell

I didn't know that he could customize it, i assumed it was pre-built with that stuff lol

FX 6300 < i5 4460

R9 280 > GTX 750 ti

AMD unless you plan to upgrade your GFX card in the not too distant future. The AMD will be better for gaming due to the GFX card and the fact it comes with the never settle bundle makes it great value (Star Citizen + Alien: Isolation are excellent games IMO and you still get to choose a third from a selection of good games). The SSDs a nice bonus too.

Intel is better for just gaming, but for streaming and recording I'd go with AMD.

 

Also having looked at those two specifically, the 280 is way better than the 750 Ti, and that'll make a much bigger difference than the CPU in each of them

Quicksync and/or Shadowplay say otherwise. It's amazing how long doctrines linger in these forums. Are we also still going to say AMD has bad Drivers and Nvidia cards overheat?

How about Intel rigging benchmarks all the time, yeah, that shit isn't dated at all.

 

To the untrained eye; i'm being sarcastic.

Wow it's almost as if more cores aren't generally better for multitasking and doing lots of things in the background compared with the fewer, faster cores that typically benefit gaming by itself. How wrong an assumption this is.

Did you even read what you wrote? Or were you just set out to counter my sarcasm with your own, predominantly to be edgy? Because it doesn't make sense. In order for this to work, AMD has to be better at multitasking and there actually have to be mutliple things going on requiring the CPU's attention. A, AMD isn't that much better in multitasking, as it puts even more pressure on the poor resource sharing it does. And B. because you can accelerate streaming/recording with the iGPU or Hardware encoder on a GPU, the multitasking argument becomes moot from the get-go, because there is no multitasking going on. It's been handed over to hardware acceleration.

 

AMD is not better for streaming, stop spreading this doctrine (which was the reason for my sarcasm). And even if it somehow manages to edge out the Intel i3 by a few f[s in a non-accelerated test, the framerate will be really bad regardless, because it can barely get 50-60fps in modern in the first place. Let alone during streaming. The TekSyndicate video which i'm pretty sure you're about to link next is deconstructed by that last argument.

I could not give less of a shit about this argument you're insisting upon, but if your point is completely countered by a TekSyndicate video I could potentially link to, which would be the only reason you would bring it up, then ok then. Good for you. Or not. Whatever.

 

I like how you're measuring streaming in fps. Well done. That completely makes sense.

And that video is completely countered by using plain logic (low framerates, poor GPU, etc etc). Don't hide behind a video to do the arguing for you. If you can't explain yourself just don't bother.

I literally have no idea what video you're talking about, but if you are so convinced that Logan has already decimated your argument, I'm not going to argue

Out of these two I#d get the AMD, however with that budget you could do a lot better on a Intel build and get at least a GTX 760 in there.

 

The time for building a PC isn't right imo though. Wait for the GTX 960 release at the end of januar.

This just in: never buy a PC because someone is always about to release something new!

True point, however the only GPU that stands above the 750 Ti is the GTX 760, which clearly isn't worth it at this point. Of course you could just gut with a R9 280, but for the nvidia side, it's not worth pulling the trigger now.

If I were to build a PC for OP's budget it wouldn't be either of these options, but of the two were are given the AMD option makes more sense because of the GPU

It's 2AM in the morning here, just relaxing with a movie. Benefit of two screens. But we'll just skip over the fact how hypocritical this comment is since you're the one overtly butthurt and are also present on the forum at the same timestamp. I had every reason to belittle your comment like that, because you were just regurgitating some ancient doctrine that no longer held true (and was only partially true back in 2011). 

 

Stop appealing to authority. Just because Logan says it, it isn't therefor true. He's just some schmuck who set up a youtube account, he's not some PC-messiah. I know which video you mean, it's this video; /watch?v=eu8Sekdb-IE

Most of the benchmarks results are in the 20-30fps region and all tests were done with a low-end 7870. Everything that video claims to prove is inadmissable, just by the sheer power of logic. Which that guy lacks, just like most youtubers like Steve Austin, JayzTwoCents and Logan. Even Linus drops the ball on multiple occasions.

This just in! More cores are only better for multitasking pre-2011!!

 

I'm not appealing to authority. I've said repeatedly that I have no idea what video is defeating your argument. If you hadn't brought up the fact that Logan had done we wouldn't even be talking about him. I mean you're now listing online sources who have said that you are flat out wrong? I literally have to do nothing, you are dismantling your own argument with sources.

Please stop arguing, all i want to know is which pc should i get. The Amd pc or Intel pc and thats it, stop arguing.
