If gaming only, i5 + SSD.

I would recommend a b bigger SSD, so more games fit on it

[CharlieR1]

Gaming and browsing I'd have to go FX-8350 + 240gb SSD. Spend more money on a graphics card, an Intel CPU I (personally) think is not worth it for gaming and browsing.

[Laederem]

4790k, buy the SSD later.

 

This offers upgrade paths and that route should be taken since upgrading to an SSD is much easier than upgrading a CPU.

 

The way things appear to be going, a 4790k will last an awfully long time.

Except an 8350 is absolutely trash.

If you wanted to reccomend he goes a bit more budget on the CPU, then you would reccomend a 4460/h97 combo as even that will still destroy that 8-core garbage in games.

I wouldn't say the 8350 is trash. It's a decent CPU which fairs well for heavily threaded workloads on the cheap, but since it has weak per core performance the i5 is often favored as a better choice for a gaming CPU.

hahahaha, 4690k obliterates any FX CPU in gaming.

 

OP get the 4690k and SSD imo unless you really want that extra few FPS in certain games/future games.

OK, its not trash. But for gaming, its never a good choice unless you only ever play bf4 and that's it. Its single core performance is terrible. Arrandale probably has better single core performance than bulldozer.

For faildozer, yes, but not Vishera.

They're all pretty bad. Amd doesn't have a single good consumer CPU.

Lol I guess I'm going against an Intel fanboy. AMD is putting their efforts in mobile devices, and are doing great. Their desktop CPUs are decent depending on your needs. Say I wanted a cheap sub $100 CPU I can use for video editing. I would go for a FX 8320e. Or say I wanted a processor less than $100 for use in a HTPC capable of light gaming. I would go for an A8 or A10. Saying that they don't have a single good consumer CPU is nonsense.

I'm not an Intel fanboy. As I've explained before. Amd makes a CPU that's better for gaming than Intel's offerings and I'll buy it. Currently amd does not have a single good gaming CPU, that's what I meant.

Well duh, the 8350 costs $100 less. I'd take the i5 any day.

That's like saying Microsoft has no good products lol...

 

I wouldn't say they don't have a single good gaming CPU, an overclocked 860k can match or beat an i3 in gaming, but as a trade off it has a limited upgrade path. A few of their APUs are decent for those on a budget.

Personally, I like to have a "snappy system" so i'd go for the ssd.

I mean good, not decent. Something from AMD that's as good as a 4690k.

I do not understand what the arrow is supposed to mean. I do not understand what you're trying to say.

Could have just said AMD is decent,yet Intel has superior offerings in the current market rather than bashing them at first as terrible cpus.

OK. I see your point. I'll take that into consideration. I hope you have a good day, sir. May your children prosper.
