Fx 8300 or 8350?

[Stoneboi]

So I have an rx 480 8gb (factory oc) nitro

DDr3 2100 32gb

Photon 700 watt

Windows 10 pro

Asrock 970a g3.1

Fx 6100 (stock)

Would the 8300 or 8350 big a better step up from what I own now?

I bottle neck in modern games and It sucks.

(no intel comments just wanting an answer)

[[LTT] LinusFTW]

Neither

8350 and get a CPU cooler so you can overclock and not bottleneck

I have an arctic 240mm cpu cooler..

Temps stay under 41c at all times

[SpaceMachine153]

That'll work just overclock and you should be good

Save your money and get a Ryzen 5 and new MB when it releases Ryzen is leap and bounds better then the FX lineup. The 8350 will still bottle neck you.

The bad reviews are based around Ryzen 7 because of the poor gaming performance however from what I've been hearing Ryzen 5 will be much better.

If you go Intel then look at the i5 7600K or i7 7700K. And no I'm not the real Linus, I'm just a fan of the channel hence 'FTW' if I was trying to imitate him I would call myself 'Linus Sebastian' but as you can see I'm not.

It sooo depends on the game how much or if you bottleneck.

If you plan on NOT switching your platform for a few more years then why not pick up a $130 FX8350 or $90 FX8300 and overclock.

Some games FX8xxx has an advantage over higher clocked FX6xxx ^.

Watch Dog 2 the RX480 could careless what color cpu you use ^.

http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/battlefield_1_pc_graphics_benchmark_review,9.html

Again with a stronger gtx1070 FX8370 who cares ^.

The games that brutalize amd FX framerates are Fallout 4 and GTA5 but they're still smooth and playable on FX8xxx.

Try overclocking your current FX 6100 and see what kind of performance that gets you.

As for a new FX CPU, I honestly wouldn't bother, unless you can get it cheap. You'd be better off saving for a new platform, whether thats based around a 7600k or a 1500X.

Ive tried over clocking Im terrible at doing it

[Aliquis Freedom & Ethnopluralism]

New? Don't upgrade the CPU.
Used? Sure if you can sell your FX-6100 and upgrade to FX-8000 for a low enough cost maybe do that but it won't help much.

FX-4100 vs FX-8350 unlikely give all that much difference in a game. Notice I wrote FX-4100 not 6100 ..

You don't want Intel suggested so .. The better upgrade would be to sell the stuff you got an upgrade to Ryzen 5 1600X or whatever instead.

[SmollBrain 🏹]

save more money for a new mobo so you can go intel. fx series is old and not worth it unless you get one for super cheap
