Intel core i3 Or...?

[Raptr0zz]

Hello guys I want to ask you which of the both processors was a better choice?

Intel core i3-3220 VS. AMD Bulldozer x6 FX-6100

:? And please tell me why :3

What will you be using your computer for? And what do you have planned for the other parts?

FX-6100 because it's a 6-core processor and you can easily overclock it. And also, it's cheaper here in France, don't know about the price where you live.

I was once in your situation. I clearly went for FX-6100 because it was best on performance at its price and is fully overclockable. These "6" cores can come in handy in the future.

Yeah I would go for the amd Bulldozer. Unless you want to do virtual machines since more of them are comparable with intel, for example a hackentosh.

Well, use my computer for making 3D motion graphics with Cinema 4D, and I don't know if i fucked up myself cuz i already have i3, while for the price, the price for the both of the processors here in Bulgaria is the same. :)

Well, even if you have the i3 already, you did a good choice in terms of entry level processor ;)

Neither, get an FX 6300, an i3 is a dual core which will not be able to run games at playable framerates in the near future because of the multi-threading focus of the new consoles.
The FX 6100 is the older bulldozer based CPU, the FX 6300 is significantly faster, overclocks a lot higher & runs cooler.

Looks like u trying to save money I would pick up new a10-5800k u have mid rang gameing pc that u can hybrid crossfire or just at more power gpu later ,it play a lot new games on med settings easy and is better cpu then i3 for almost same cost

between the 2500K & the 2600K

[KneesWeak]

honestly an fx6300 would be a better choice, lower tdp, higher clockspeed, potentially better overclocker and it doesnt come with the same issues the 6100 has, being a first generation bulldozer chip.  But in gaming performance take the fx over the i3 anyday.

So can you please tell me which of the both would be a better choice? I just wanted to know, and the most of you AGAIN and AGAIN in the whole forum speak about better gaming performance.... :/
