From AMD to Intel?

Go to solution Solved by _SNOWMAN_,

Or a better AMD cpu? No problems running anything Adobe here. Well... no problems running anything so far.  I had thought about switching to Intel before I built this PC. Decided to stick with AMD and very satisfied.

So, I have or more like am going to have (not yet finished) a PC with an AMD FX 6350 and I will probably like it, but im scared It might bottleneck the GPU, and I also know that Intel CPUs are more "adopted" by most people. As in more motherboards, lots of apps preferring it (cough, cough ADOBE, cough.) and I would like to know a nicely priced preferably "K" Intel CPU that would be a good future upgrade and that wont nuke by wallet. Like an Intel brother of the AMD fx 6350 that would get me started on the Intel path.

 

A good price would be for me around 150 - 200 EURO.
