[Justin Ooi]

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen

 

I am batteling against this 2 CPU  AMD FX-9590 or FX-8350 

can anyone please help out which is better

Thanks ,

 

PS : Also i just bought a new motherboard which is am3+ so i`m not possibly going to buy a new motherboard with am4 socket so i can buy Ryzen

Thanks in Advance

there's your first problem.

 

also, an FX9590 is just a "higher clock speed out the box" FX8350, and neither are really anywhere near being decent.

SIgh.. honestly neither... but the 9590 was the flagship so go with that if its your only 2 options.

SELL THE BOARD AND BUY RYZEN!!!!!

[Justin Ooi]

So Other than That Both CPU 

Any Suggestion On Which CPU is best for performance with am3+ socket?

 

Thanks in Advance

Building an AM3+ system is not worth it at all, so better sell that motherboard and get AM4. If you are set on those FX CPUs, don't get the 9590 - at 220W TDP it's a space heater.

None, why do you think Ryzen exists?

Um 1st, people use the night theme.

2nd, both are bad, but the 9590 is the better one of the two.

asus sabertooth and a 8370 in am3. AIO preferably. and if you do this learn to OC

[comicsansms]

What motherboard did you buy? The FX 9590 will start a fire if the motherboard is shit, and the FX 8350 is likely to start a fire if the motherboard is shit.

 

Honestly, I'd sell it and get an AM4 or LGA 1151 platform.

I am currently using Asus Sabertooth 990fx R3.0

Two things:

 

1. As everyone has already said, you should honestly sell the board and go to a different socket. Not sure why you thought buying a AM3+ mobo is a good idea when Ryzen and Kaby Lake just got released.

 

2. You just can't put a FX 9590 into any old AM3+ motherboard. Otherwise, the possibility of it catching on fire is very much real.

that should be able to handle a 9590. but seriously better getting a 8370. an oc it yourself.

but yeah personally i would have

gone for a R7 1700 on a MSi b350

Ok Guys Thanks for the Replies

I will Consider

it will just also over heat on pretty much any air cooler in existance.

thats only because it was containing the heat of a small star... nothing to serious.

make sure u get fast ram as well, but yeah id be looking at overclocking if you are going for a CPU like that (unless you get the collapsed sun that is the 9590, at which point buy a firetruck, LN2 cooler, invest in a religion and learn to pray that is wont cook you your house and half the country when you turn it on)

Your making that sound good, you'll need 2 Firetrucks, get your facts right.

You just bought a motherboard for a 10 year old processor lineup. Definitely consider. 

[Nena Trinity]

990FX board such as ASUS Formula Z or Sabertooth then sure get FX-9590 but if not then FX-8370!

The 9590 is just a highly binned version of the FX 83xx chip. Go for the 8350. You'll get much better performance for your money and you can potentially overclock it to perform as well as a 9590. Also the 9590 gets as hot as the freakin sun and you will need an apropriate cooling solution.

[robertpartridge]

Let me ask ... what is your intended use for the CPU?  Depending on your answer, you may be better served buying a cheaper CPU like a FX-6300.

Then you can get the 9590. But it's a matter of pricing as well: the only difference between them is granted OC to 4.7/5.0 vs uncertain OC speed, most likely giving up turbo (disregard TDP comments: you'll want to OC the 8350 anyways, and just because people in general don't have a measure of TDP after OCing it doesn't mean they are doing much better than the factory OCed chip does). Hence, I wouldn't pay too much more to get the 9590. At the same price, yes, why not.

Don't forget the 9590 is a 220w space heater, and you have the added cost of CPU cooling, and Depending on usage Room Cooling.  I have a 9590 and under load you don't need to heat in the winter.

It'll be no different with an OC'ed 8350, or even most i7s OC'ed to their limit. I stand by what I said: TDP isn't as factor unless the plan is to keep the 8350 at stock.
