Guys i want to buy an amd fx 8320 which i will overclock to 4.7 and i will use the asus sabertooth 990fx/gen3 r2.0 i just want to know if the cpu will decrease the performance of the gtx 690. I cant get i7 due to the cost.

i saw the benchmarks and after the overclock the fx's performance was pretty good.i just dont the cpu to decrease the performance over 10 fps 

 

thanks in advance

get an i5 4460 instead , it's the same price.

Also there is no garantee that the cpu will reach 4.7ghz ( even though the motherboard is great)

so there is no chance that the i5 4460 will bottleneck the gtx 690

Depends on the game. In Fallout 4 there's a chance it would, the 8320 because of the threads will perform better in that game.

 

So it's important to know what games you play.

If anyone asks you never saw me.

but i saw that the fx is better than the i5 4460.

i5 > FX

 

Don't question it. A lot of forum users have gone this route and they all got screwed. Get an i5. It won't bottleneck your 690 while an FX CPU will.
