for gaming whats more powerful fx9590@5 ghz or 5960x@3.5

[Bajantechnician]

so what would be more powerful for gaming, and what would be the difference in fps, 5? 6?2?

 

Thanks

[HKZeroFive]

You kidding me?

 

A 5960X by far.

[vanished]

Should be the 5960x, since the single threaded performance would still be higher even at the much lower clock speed.  And the total performance would be massively better

[Enderman]

uh, even a 4790k is better than the 9590 at everything, not just gaming

5960X. Plus, reduced risk of fire or explosion.

This is a troll. You've been here long enough to know this answer.

Somewhere in the substantial 20%-35% more. Unless the game you are playing does not require any type of CPU. 

[Dabombinable]

A stock i5 2500K is better for gaming than an FX 9590, so yeah.....

isnt 4k supposed to be a big gpu tank?

Yes, but we are talking about CPUs.

Even at 4K an FX 9590 wouldn't be as good as a stock i5 2500K.

sorry that i dont have that chip......

[Ophidio]

Do you use a candle to check for wind in a submarine? Because if you do then the AMD chip is better. If you don't 5960x is better by 200fps.

So what if it is?  Having a CPU that's even better isn't going to hurt if you're GPU-bound.

are you kidding?  That's actually quite CPU-heavy.  It would love a 5960x, especially if you can get it up to 4 or 4.5 GHz

It still relies on both the GPU and CPU.

 

Still why go with the 9590 FX anyway ? The thing is hella hot, garbage performance, requires a Liquid Cooler or a heavy large air cooler. 

 

Intel demolishes absolutely everything that the FX can " Do" flat out. Except when to extreme budgets like 300$ then APU's are a better choice

That is the only game that I have that the 3570K holds back my GPU on. Even Planetside 2 is better. (GTA Online)
