Should I move to Intel

See specs in sig, im selling my friend my an old am3 mobo, my fx 6300, 7870, ram, hitachi hdd, nzxt source 210 my tx 550m and my old cm hyper. He's not really going to oc and frankly I don't think the mobo can handle 4.5 or anything but I can easily give him my ud3 and mabye go for a cheap z77 board and a 3570k.  I got pretty good cooling coming, but I don't know if I should just keep my ud3 and go for a 8320/50 and save the money.  I plan on getting a 7950, hx 750/ tx850m and the norm 8 gigs a ram.

Get and 8320 and wait for 9xxx.

you have a fairly recent CPU I don't really see why you would need to get a new one.

If you want better power consumption then yes, but otherwise just upgrade to am 8320/8350 and a 7970/7950

I would stay with AMD, because they don't get that hot anyway, also the 8320 is probably the best chip available in terms of price to performance. As for graphics cards, most people will say wait for the r9-970 or 9XXX series of cards to be release, however upon looking at Nvidia's roadmap of expected performance increase, Maxwell is looking like a very good option as well

I'm selling it to him regardless, im breaking even, its a $20 updgrade to an 8320

so you want me to run no gpu till october, im probably going to end up selling my 7950 towards the middle of 2014 anyway when the 9000 series drops in price, a lot of my friends need upgrades (running 6770's and 2500ks)

im actuallly seeing a cpu bottleneck with my hd 7870, turning the graphics settings down doesnt really give me any frame rate increases even at 1080p so my 6300 may be decent but doesn't really keep up, an 8320 may not even help much

By then 8xx will be relevant, I still highly suggest waiting the little bit for 9xxx.
