To get a mobo and cpu cooler that will support the 9590 you'll be paying more. The 4690K is cheaper overall and performs better.

Definitely the i5.

AM3+ is not a good option at all for gaming.

4690K By FAR.  It outperforms the 9590 in virtually every circumstance.

Just remember: Random people on the internet ALWAYS know more than professionals, when someone's lying, AND can predict the future.

i5 ofc or a xeon 1231 v3 if you need 8 threads for something like increased rendering speeds over the i5.

It depends on what you are doing. There would alot of games where the amd will win.But there isn't muchm overclocking room with it. Because its the highest clock. 

 

 

And keep in mind that the 9590 is just an overclocked 8350.

I wouldn't say that, in most gaming situations but he didn't specify that. There is a lot of other productivity related things the 9590 could be better at. But for gaming yeah definitely go i5.

Is this even a legit question or a troll?

No need to getting toxic here. FX-9590 is AMD's most powerful cpu with 8 cores so surely someone would think it could compete with an i5.

Not everybody knows amd :(

FX-9590 will only be better for parallel workloads that scale extremely well with lots of cores. So things like video encoding or file compression.

However it will pump a metric shitload more heat into your room, require a much beefier power supply, require expensive cooling (240mm AIO liquid cooler), and require a good motherboard with 8+2 phase design.

 

Really it would be cheaper to get an i5-4690K, cheapish Z97 board (I have a Gigabyte Z97X-SLI and it does the job) and an inexpensive cooler like a Hyper 212 EVO or be quiet Pure Rock.

Intel i5-4690K @ 3.8GHz || Gigabyte Z97X-SLI || 8GB G.Skill Ripjaws X 1600MHz || Asus GTX 760 2GB @ 1150 / 6400 || 128GB A-Data SX900 + 1TB Toshiba 7200RPM || Corsair RM650 || Fractal 3500W

They're not accurate. I'm not sure whether Tek Syndicate was paid by AMD, whether they were just trying to fuel the fire/stir the pot, or whether Logan is just a moron and his Intel chips were throttling. Those results are really inconsistent with what others have found

Unlike Logan who gets given 990FX's to use with them...

Most people (who don't know better) don't buy a 990FX chipset to use with their 'cheaper AMD' builds.

And suffer greatly for it.

Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,.. Gigabyte GTX970 G1-Gaming @ 1550Mhz

And a Core i3 is a better budget option because of the cores on the 6300.

Countless times these chipsets run quite warm.

Seen my fair share of performance problems on cheaper boards.

990Fx or bust.

why do they suffer exactly

Because of VRM throttling.  Voltage regulation modules.  It breaks down lots big voltage into little voltage.  The FX processors are incredibly power hungry, and require a ton of voltage even at stock speeds.  If you buy a motherboard with less than 6+2 VRMs, chances are you will have a hard time even running at stock speed. 8+2 is recommended.  By the time you buy an 8+2 VRM phase motherboard, you end up spending just as much as Intel.  This doesn't take into account an aftermarket cooler, or energy cost per year.  This only increases if you overclock.  No matter how high you end up overclocking an FX processor, it won't compete with a locked i5 in games, and it will bottleneck high end GPUs.  You also have no upgrade path, because the only thing better than an FX8, is just an overclocked FX8 in the form of an FX9.

 

Buy an i5-4690k + Z97 motherboard and enjoy.

Depends on what you do, 4690K is choice for gaming rig, 9590 is better for work station rig.
