Go to solution Solved by 007agentHP,

if you want to overclock, then go 760k. the steamroller cores overclock better

if you will just run at stock, get the 860k because kaveri cores outperform steamroller cores AT STOCK (not overclocked)

I already got the money to buy it. I just want to know which is better. Any pros and cons for both?

running on stock, living in a tropical country + overclock would kill my system. i don't have budget for watercool as well.. so 860K it is! :D
