I need a new cpu

[Banana2]

I need a new cpu for my pc i have the AMD FX 6300 but in many games load getting up to 100% on all 6 cores which is the best am3+ socket cpu for gaming?

Best one on the am3+ chipset (I know the cpu is practically the same as the one below it but it is clocked higher)

Id save up for a core i5 on lga 1151. The 8 cores on that socket are much faster on that socket.

Not worth it to stay on am3+. Either stick it out, wait for zen or go intel

[iRileyx]

You'd be better making the jump to Intel if you can afford it.

But an 8370 would be a good upgrade from your current cpu.

am3+ is the socket, unless you mean chipset then 990fx. Personally, I would just wait for Zen to arrive.

[Banana2]

will it give zen on am3+ ?

no, new platform for zen.

Nope, you need a new board.

no, it has more cores. 8core vs 6core. however you should go with a fx 8370 at most, because the 9590 uses 220w. chances are your motherboard doesnt support it.

Aha didn't know that! Thanks! That chip is very power hungry 

[m0k]

just get any of the 8core FX cpu's

[Banana2]

amd fx 8350 is this good for gaming?

 

[SkilledRebuilds]

Some games see literally NO BENEFIT from FX8 from FX4 or FX6.

Games that don't even use all threads... the performance is the EXACT same.

Now... more modern games are better than older games in this regard, and you may see improvements in properly multi-threaded games.

But those that are not, may see little to absolute ZERO benefit moving from FX4/6 to FX8.

Which is why everybody wants to overclock FX, to make the most out of it, but even that adds more questions... (Motherboard VRM Phases & Quality VS Cooling)

 

Just beware some games wont benefit at all from FX6>8

You need a good mobo and a good AIO unless you are looking for a new toaster and... a fire.

um an i5 doesn't have 8 cores...

[Banana2]

so i have three options buy a new motherboard and intel i5 6600K cpu  or wait for zen and buy a new board with cpu or buy a amd cpu and learn to overclock it ?

 

[Banana2]

[Banana2]

games are:

rainbow six siege

battlefield 1

squad

 

[Banana2]

should i buy a new one with 4.5 ghz or try to oc?

 

[Banana2]

i try to oc with SI Suite II ich reached 4.0 ghz now i need to learn  overlocking and see what happens

@Banana2: Yup, the CPU is drawing you back, but with your setup you should get ~4.5 Ghz OC easy, if your target is 60 FPS then you should have no problems with those games, especially BF1.

BF1 is cpu entensif, 

Having 100 fps will not necessarily gives good gaming performance. If the cpu is @ 100% usage all the time it will create stuttering lag spikes ever 2-3 seconds, wich will be annoyinh and almost unplayable. And that happens regardless of the fps ur getting. Thats cpu lag. its not fps lag.

I had an i5 4690K @ 4.5 ghz and with my gtx 1070, had over 80 fps all the time but cpu was at 100% usage mostly all the time and it was creating a lot of stuttering lag...

I upgraded to a 6700k and all the cpu spikes have disappeared. No stuttering at all anymore.

Of course in some maps the i5 was enough power, and in general the game was playable and some maps were 100% playable,

But the biggest maps, the city map, the grappa mount, and like 2 other maps were so greedy in cpu usage, my i5 simply cudnt run it...

 

[Banana2]

i dont wanna 100 fps my traget are 60fps  no lags just a great game and cpu not at 100% 

[Banana2]

i search a new cpu my old max oc is by 4ghz over that the 6th core stop working i looked around the internet and found  amd fx 6350  is it opssible to oc this one to like 4,5ghz?

 

[Banana2]

is my cooling good for the FX8350 clocked at 4,5ghz and i change the fan from the watercolling and 2 front fans to high air flow fans ?
