Fury X Question

that was because BF 4 used multithreaded operations a lot more than the other games isn't it ? but holy 90% ? 

Yes BF4 is pretty heavily threaded but the point was that the 8120 bottlenecked a 290 pretty heavily, so a 6350 would be a huge one for such a high end GPU.

Then i stand corrected. 

Edit: dont have much knowledge on AMD processors.

add an 8350 to that list, fuck

 

Are you going with a FX processor? You shouldn't ya know. On a high end card like 980Ti/Fury X. 

The FX CPU will bottleneck you. 

i5 2400 | ASUS RTX 4090 TUF OC | Seasonic 1200W Prime Gold | WD Green 120gb | WD Blue 1tb | some ram | a random case

Okay, so I was thinking about buying a Fury X, but I only have a 500W psu, and PcPartPicker says it will take 513 max watts, do you think this will kill my psu, or will I be fine?

what resolutions are you planning to be gaming at, because the fury is probably going to cost you more money than you need to spend if you need to upgrade some parts. Also, your CPU shouldn't be much of a bottleneck at all.

a 4690k would perform much better, and if you live near a microcenter, is only $25 more.

Woo!

That's probably overkill. it's ultimately up to you, but you could save a lot of money if you got a cheaper gpu an kept the same CPU. What gpu do you currently have? And do you have a 144hz monitor?

I don't really have one, but the cheapest possible would be the best.

there is a point of diminishing return, where the price gets to be greater than the performance. A Fury X with several other upgrades would probably e passing that point. I would suggest maybe something more like a 980/970 and keeping all of the same parts. The CPU shouldn't be much of a "bottleneck" as they have little performance on gaming and the fx-6350 cab stand it's ground against better CPUs for gaming. That should be plenty of power, and it's good on tr budget

Do you think I'll need a new power supply?

I would recommend one, although if you really don't want to spend any extra money you can probably get by with your 500w. I would recommend the Corsair CX-600. corsair has an excellent reputation, and it's only about $60, sometimes cheaper on amazon

you could also spend another 20 bucks and get an 4690k if you'd like.

both the 980 ti and Fury X are ment for 4k, and would be absolutely overkill for 1080p. At that resolution, a 970 could probably do very well on many games
