honestly you can get an i4 4460 and b85 board for a similar cost and it will perform better

If you have a budget go for amd. Great bang for the buck.

Intel will poo on any AMD CPU for gaming. Give us your total budget and we will get you a good system

RIG: I7-4790k @ 4.5GHz | MSI Z97S SLI Plus | 12GB Geil Dragon RAM 1333MHz | Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 970 (1550MHz core/7800MHz memory) @ +18mV(Maxed out at 1650/7800 so far) | Corsair RM750 | Samsung 840 EVO 120GB, 1TB Seagate Barracuda | Fractal Design Arc Midi R2 (Closed) | Sound Blaster Z                                                                                                                        Getting: Noctua NH-D15 | Possible 250GB Samsung 850 Evo                                                                                        Need a console killer that actually shits on every console? Here you go (No MIR/Promo)

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 | http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861

I can foresee a flame war starting with this thread. There's been so many Intel vs AMD threads that I've lost count.

And an FX-8320 OC'd gets beaten by an I3 in gaming...That's not bang for the buck, the FX-lineup is terrible for gaming with medium to high-end cards

And i have a gtx 770 4 gb 

Then you DEFINITELY want an intel cpu. AMD CPUs will bottleneck on certain games way more than an intel would at 1080p with a high end graphics card.

 

Only real reason to go for an FX series would be for full time streaming and if you can't afford an i7.

Well, AMD hasn't released any new or decent CPUs for a while. I'll let that speak for itself. ;)

As @ShadowCaptain said, get a cheap intel motherboard and an i5 4460 or something.
