Fx-6300 vs i3 4310

[MasterJV]

6300 all the way. At stock it destroys the i3. Overclock it and enjoy the performance.

[brob]

Can someone provide actual data to support the claims that the FX-6300 will "crush" the i3-4130? I ask because I simply can't find any.

 

Mynameislemos, what sort of stuff will the system be used for, e.g. gaming, browsing, photo editing, etc.?

This gonna tell you actually everything you want to hear:

http://www.cpu-world.com/Compare/351/AMD_FX-Series_FX-6300_vs_Intel_Core_i3_i3-4130.html

 

 

P.S. Personally I would go i3 rather than power hungry AMD cpu. It destroys FX-6300 in single-thread performance & no one knows if future games will use more cores, plus you can overclock your i3 too (with blck in bios). And all in all, it's Intel. They know how to build CPU's unlike AMD's faildozzers, or another failure FX 9590 which first price was 900$ & then they dropped the price to 355$ because it failed. They seem very premature company.

looooooooool

 

http://anandtech.com/bench/product/699?vs=677

 

 

6 core AMD cpu vs i3 dual-core intel cpu (ivy bridge 3220 not haswell's 4310)

 

and you say that this is not fail? 

it even loses in some tests look at that benchmark.

and this is with it's 6 core guys. 6 core intel CPU is so powerfull that AMD doesn't even have it's competitor

 

go with intel and you will have chance to upgrade to core i5 or i7 and that haswell i5 i7 beat every single AMD cpu by far.

FX 6300 AT STOCK is faster than the i5 4430, it will destroy the i3.

http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=Intel+Core+i5-4430+%40+3.00GHz

 

And UNLIKE the i5 or the i3 it's unlocked, so you can overclock it to even outperform an i5 4670, AND it's cheaper than both.

You're just being a fanboy, a few hundred mhz from the blck in the bios won't beat out however much the silicon lottery will allow a particular 6300 to acheive. and BF3 uses up to six cores in multiplayer. In a minimum of two years every game that comes out from a major dev will use 4 cores that's pretty much guaranteed. The power usage won't matter as it will be like $5-6 a year and while the i3 is better for single threaded tasks the 6300 will destroy it in any multithreaded task.

[brob]

Teraflop, don't see i3-4130 anywhere on those graphis. Nor could I find the FX-6300 on the Tom's chart.

You really can't as the review was done before the i3 4130 launched, you can easily predict performance by adding Haswell's IPC improvements to the i3 3220, which amount to about 10%.

As for the FX 6300, look at the FX 6350 scores, since it's just a higher clocked FX 6300, and since the FX 6300 is unlocked you can overclock it to match the FX 6350 on the stock heatsink.

[maddogl]

i would have to say the 6300 as it runs cool despite what some people are saying this gives overclocking headroom and low noise output it's good better than the i3 anyway

Nope. Actually, it's you fanboy here. i3 doesn't even need to overclock to destroy 6300 in single core performance. It already does even with stock speed. And who cares about BF game, when he's buying economical cpu. Did he say, he's going to play games like BF4 or Crysis? No! So stop talkin about high perf. games in this case. And you can't guarantee about future games.

 

Get i3, it will please you in most general use & if you go into hardcore gaming in future, you can always replace it with i5 or i7 which actually destroyes any AMD cpu!

but is he looking for a i5 or i7 ... no, he wants performance most games are going to use more cores in the future so i he gets the 6300 and a decent motherboard he can overclock it to be better than and i5 that is possible, if he is not happy he can jump to a 8 core  and even then if he is not happy he can overclock.

 

 

@mynameislemos

if you went with amd what motherboard where you gonna get? same with intel?

Humm, maybe a asus b85 plus/ p8b75-v for intel and for amd maybe an asus m5a97 r2.0/ m5a97 evo 2.0

[maddogl]

i would say go for the 6300 with that motherboard as it is a good chose and that mother board will be able to have a good stable high clock what have you got for the rest of your build?

[Linus_torvalds]

if he is not happy he can jump to a 8 core  and even then if he is not happy he can overclock.

 

why would you buy 8 core CPU when you know that games are using only 2 or 4 cores only CRYSIS 3 and Battlefield 4 use 8 threads (yes these games can use even hiperthreading  8 threads of my cpu)

I don't think the OP has indicated how the cpu is going to be used. It really does make a difference. If running mostly games, especially ones that take advantage of multiple cores, FX-6300 might be better. Otherwise i3-4130 is likely the better choice. But that will remain speculation until we know what the OP want to use the cpu for, and in fact what type of system it is being put into.

Because every game coming out now will use more than 4 cores, every game engine right now is being optimized for multi-core processing and the next-gen consoles, I would suspect he wants to play any game he likes, not only games from the past...

[Jack.EXE]

6300, don't listen to snore, he's an even bigger fanboy than I am!

 

Anyway, an i3 is a terrible choice for most games.

 

and the FX 6300 actually runs pretty cool, plus with the current state of games & the console optimizations coming in the future, the extra cores will help leaps & bounds compared to the i3's 2.

Seriously @mynameislemos just put up a poll.

Wow, how you have this information? Did game developers already contact you from future?

[mynameislemos]

gtx 650 ti 2gb, 8gb corsair vengeance and a wd caviar blue

i really don't know how (noob)

[MbV93]

Wow, how you have this information? Did game developers already contact you from future?

 

From the past really, it's pretty old news... you can start by looking at Far Cry 3, Crysis being multi-core, BF3, BF4, not to mention every game coming out of EA will be multi-core optimized since everybody is using the Frostbite engine now, or the multi-core optimization patch for Planetside 2 for it to run in PS4 http://www.shacknews.com/article/81990/planetside-2-patch-overhauls-performance http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/43230-console-optimizations-will-improve-amd-cpu-performance-in-planetside-2/ and you could look at this old news: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/10522-game-developers-choose-amd-over-intel-for-gaming/ as well...

[upliftsleet1974]

The 6300 will be amazing!! The I3 better get out of the way!!

 

And the 6300 is a great overclocker

You're calling me a fanboy? did you see the rig in my signature? I run Intel/Nvidia and only ever will run Intel/Nvidia for my personal rig but Intel cannot compete with AMD's budget offerings that IS the way things are period. The best budget CPU's are AMD and suggesting anything else borders on the imbecilic.

[TechFan@ic]

Wow, how you have this information? Did game developers already contact you from future?

Game devs have made it clear that they will optimize for the AMD specific micro-architecture & they clearly stated that they favor 8 AMD Piledriver cores i.e. 4 AMD modules over 4 Intel cores.
