Good AMD CPU for gaming under $150?

TYLERisMiSfIt · Sep 2, 2013

looking for a not too expensive gaming cpu, can anyone name some off? i had the FX-6300 in mind and was wondering if it was good.

The FX 6300 is a good choice. The 8320 is also a great alternative.

Slightly over is the 8320

The FX-8120 comes in at just under $150

and I would take it over the 6350 for the extra cores. Still the FX 8320 is just $10 more so I say you may as well go with that. True the improvement IPC is small over the 8120, but that along with generally better overclocking headroom is worth the few extra bucks in my opinion.

ahh i forgot, on Amazon it is listed at 118.99 so i should of put under $200 lol i think ill only be able to get the 6300.

Sub $150, the 6300 is by far and away your best bet. Good CPU for the price and has a 26% better price//performance ratio over the 8320.
