Hi! Im debating beetween those 2, intel i7 4770k and AMD FX9370
Im musician and also sometimes i play good quality games, but what is more important is music software like ableton 9, i use a lot of tracks in projects and power hungry third party plugins, those CPU's is same price, im not a fan boy of any of them, even tho i had mostly AMD's, what do you think people? I know AMD FX is power hungry and overheats, but im buying water cooler anyway, also i prefer futureproof computer system... Benchmarks showing that intel is little better in most cases, mostly games actually, and games are not that important to me, i play FIFA a lot, and im sure any of them will handle FIFA at its best! But what about programs with multiwindows and dual monitors And stuff?

The 9370 is just a massively overclocked 8350, it's not going to get you anywhere near the performance of an i7 (especially that one) in gaming or media creation. i run AMD, but in your specific case, go Intel for sure.

I see, no doubt, thanks for your opinion bro! No wonder even apple using intel, and they known for things like music production and photo editing and stuff like that, i guess i should start looking for motherboard that fits the i7, if you have Any suggestions, i would appreciate! Thank you!
