Posted January 1, 2016 I honestly can't make up my mind. Im not a big fan for AMD because well. Intel has better single core peformance in games and stuff. Either way what to choose? Its a fairly cheap gaming pc (both are about $720). Well I know games use 4 cores tops so the other 4 cores in the AMD chip are p much useless. Honestly with 60FPS I am happy (Since I am used to low FPS :^) ) But more wouldn't hurt . Sooooo yeah. what to pick?

Posted January 1, 2016 The 8350 will get better performance in rendering and streaming. Many games support more than four cores including Crysis 3, Battlefield 4, Witcher 3, etc. "It pays to keep an open mind, but not so open your brain falls out." - Carl Sagan.

Posted January 1, 2016 Its really difficult to recommend either for gaming+streaming and rendering. The i5 4460 flogs the FX 8350 in all games, and the FX 8350 flogs the i5 4460 at streaming and rendering. Could you squeeze a hyperthreaded Xeon into your budget? Its normally the cost of an i5 with the performance of a locked i7. "We also blind small animals with cosmetics. We do not sell cosmetics. We just blind animals."

Posted January 1, 2016 Can you save a bit more for a xeon e3 1231 v3? @KawaiiNacho: If you're trying to do both gaming and streaming, this is the correct answer.

Posted January 1, 2016 Author "Squeeze a little bit" Sorry but the xeon is 50 bucks more and I already went over my $700 budget. Either way the part list is here. And yes I know the motherboards are both overkill and no I am not going to change them because upgrading to dual GPU's later on. Intel: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/XWCF7P AMD: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/2Wc7K8 Either way looking at some benchmarks in video games the FPS difference is like 10 tops and it gets +60 FPS on both chips so I'm happy. Also my monitor only has 60Hz so more will not make a big difference. Oh but the intel has integrated "display" graphics so... Would it hurt the R9 380 running a monitor and a game at the same time or wouldn't it really drop my peformance?

No. (in regards to both your build and your question) Here you go: PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant CPU: Intel Xeon E3-1231 V3 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor ($232.99 @ SuperBiiz) Motherboard: ASRock H97M PRO4 Micro ATX LGA1150 Motherboard ($62.98 @ Newegg) Memory: Mushkin ECO2 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($62.99 @ Newegg) Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($49.98 @ OutletPC) Video Card: PowerColor Radeon R9 380 2GB PCS+ Video Card ($163.98 @ Newegg) Case: Fractal Design FD-CA-CORE-3300-BL ATX Mid Tower Case ($49.99 @ Newegg) Power Supply: SeaSonic S12II 520W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply ($55.99 @ SuperBiiz) Total: $678.90 Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available Generated by PCPartPicker 2016-01-01 14:56 EST-0500 Done. Cheaper, and with better components. The PCS+ cooler is amazing, the motherboard is great, and the memory has the same timings so it functions identically. No extra "gamer" pricetag increase. The case will also be better and includes the necessary fans stock. I also got you a good psu because the one in your build is only for use in super cheap PCs that don't have good components (sub-standard voltage regulation and has caused problems in the past).

Also that you're willfully paying $30 extra for less performance and looks? If that's what you want, then so long as you replace the PSU you're good. But, I mean the build I posted has all the upside you could want: cheaper than both builds and the performance of the single threaded of the i5 (well better due to higher clock speed) and better multi-threaded performance than the FX!

Either way whats so special about the Xeon that the FX and the I5 doesn't have? Its faster than the i5 4460 single threaded and therefore faster in games, and its faster multithreaded than the FX8350 while running at a lower clock speed, only having 4 hyperthreaded cores and consuming a lot less power. Its better in every single way when compared to the i5 4460 and FX8350. "We also blind small animals with cosmetics. We do not sell cosmetics. We just blind animals."

Posted January 1, 2016 If you're going for looks possibly get G.Skill ram, people have suggested elsewhere that it is the better of most brands when it comes to memory and it looks cool.I'm not sure why you're shilling Corsair in all your builds but there are much more cost-efficient brands out there. It's your personal choice. EVGA Power supplies are far superior in quality and price for the lower end PSU's than Corsair.

Posted January 1, 2016 Author FX-8350 but you have no upgrade path... Dual R9 290X's is my upgrade path :^) I honestly still can't choose. I guess I should not cheap out and get the Xeon.
