-i have an HD7770 vapor x @1280x720
-i don't know anything about overclocking the cpu, so is it safer\better with one of them ?
-i'm just looking for a better future gaming option like watch dogs, bf4 and specially the witcher 3, and won't be playing any multiplayer online games.
-if it's possible please provide me with some gaming benchmarks :)

i'm on a tight budget and can't get the fx-6300, but fx-6100 might be a possible choice if there is a huge difference and it's really worth it

the prices in my country are really insane and the fx-6300 is not an option.
i can only get one of those FX-4130 or FX-6100 if you say it's really worth the extra money

the i3 2120 will be just a little bit cheaper because i found a cheaper mother board for it.
so i should go with the i3 2120 rather than the FX-4100\4130 ?

What about a FX 4300 or 4350? Can you get one of those? That would be worth it.

i think it's not available in my area but i'll try to find it.

if i overclocked fx-4130 at a reasonable\safe clock speed would it beat the i3-2120 ?
but i have no experience in overclocking so is it easy\safe to do it ?

It's not too hard, there are even some motherboards like the Asus M5A97 R2.0 that have a tuning feature that allows the software to setup a mild overclock for you.
