Posted October 28, 2015 well im looking at ether geting the FX-9590 or the R9 Fury X Don't get FX 9590, nothing more than a waste of money. Get something like i5 4460 and h81. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted October 28, 2015 well im looking at ether geting the FX-9590 or the R9 Fury X go intel plz, prefferably i5 4690k. You will see minimal performance boost, but once you get a fury x, you should be good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted October 28, 2015 Author ... im not an intel hater but i am a bit of a AMD fanboy also to switch to intel i will have to change MOBO as well as CPU so thats a no go also fallout "requires" a 9590 CPU CPU FX-6350 Motherboard Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 RAM 16GB (8GB Crucial, 8GB G.

I have an fx 6300, I plan to get r9 390 although it will bottleneck. I plan to upgrade cpu later. You will see a huge massive enormous bottleneck with a 9560 and fury x. Fury x is pointless if you don't wanna go intel. BTW, the power consumption is gonna be outrageous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted October 28, 2015 Author ok so i should just stick with the setup i have until i can drop 4+ grand(being a bit obnoxious) on an intel/nvidia machine but i guess if im talking serious should i just wate till ddr4 is the standard and the 2011-v3 socket has dropped or should i start investing in moving to intel now CPU FX-6350 Motherboard Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 RAM 16GB (8GB Crucial, 8GB G.

Posted October 28, 2015 a new gpu will treat you better. However I would say a 390, not a fury x if you want to stick with AMD. Simply because for the price of a fury/x you could get a 980 or 980ti instead which perform a bit better for the same price.

Posted October 28, 2015 Author but should i just wait till ddr4 is the standard and get a 2011-v3 socket or should i start investing in moving to intel sooner and go ahead and get an intel board now CPU FX-6350 Motherboard Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 RAM 16GB (8GB Crucial, 8GB G.

Posted October 28, 2015 ... but im kind of a crazy person and AMD has to go with AMD/ATI and intell has to go with nvidia also edit to my previos post Well then fucking bottleneck your Fury X with that amd cpu shit or wait until you can get a new Intel + Nvidia setup. If you're not open to new things that may very well be far better, then you might as well not have made this thread. Intel CPU + AMD GPU = Great Gaming. But if you want to be stubborn, bottleneck that Fury X or hopelessly sit and wait for money to appear, I personally don't give one shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted October 28, 2015 but should i just wait till ddr4 is the standard and get a 2011-v3 socket or should i start investing in moving to intel sooner and go ahead and get an intel board now DDR4 is a bit faster than DDR#, stick to DDR3.

Posted October 28, 2015 ... but im kind of a crazy person and AMD has to go with AMD/ATI and intell has to go with nvidia also edit to my previos post Dude, even an i3 in gaming can go agosnt an FX 9590. Also you WILL have to get a new mobo if your VRMs are not good, if not the FX9590 could be a fire hazard. A i5-4690k or i7-4790k and EVEN a Xeon 1231v3 will be WAY better then a FX CPU. Also, AMD works fine with intel. Like nvidia works fine AMD. Get one ofmthe CPUs suggested along with a cheap Z97 ( if you get a K chip ) or H97 board if you go with the Xeon. Then, later down get a nice R9 390 or 390x and if you got the money 980Ti. i7-6700k Cooling: Deepcool Captain 240EX White GPU: GTX 1080Ti EVGA FTW3 Mobo: AsRock Z170 Extreme4 Case: Phanteks P400s TG Special Black/White PSU: EVGA 850w GQ Ram: 64GB (3200Mhz 16x4 Corsair Vengeance RGB) Storage 1x 1TB Seagate Barracuda 240GBSandisk SSDPlus, 480GB OCZ Trion 150, 1TB Crucial NVMe (Rest of Specs on Profile) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
