So its me again and i have finally put two build up, One is a pentium g3258 with a R9 270X Windforce Edition whilst the other is a Core I3 With a MSI R9 270.

 

So my question is which is best for playing games like GTA 5 And Battlefield 4 And also a little bit of gaming video creation.

The g3258 WILL NOT PLAY gta 5

Core I3 hands down. The 4 cores hyperthreading will do a lot of good in games like GTA 5, plus cut down on render times on gaming videos.

I am conducting some polls regarding your opinion of large technology companies. I would appreciate your response.

I would say the I3 build is best for what you want but I am by no means an authority on the subject.

the i3 build

the i3 doesnt have 4 cores. It has 2 cores and 4 threads

The i3 build. On a side note, you could consider getting a i5 build, with no GPU, and get a GPU later down the line.
