Hey everybody, I am interested in buying a rig for games. Right now I just want to focus on the performance of the CPUS on CSGO (Counter Strike Global Offensive)
CSGO is a VERY CPU intensive game on low resolution. I am a competitive player trying to get in the "pro scene" and I want to be able to stream and play CSGO and not have any hiccups at all. I am used to playing on low resolution / low graphic settings. I saw these benchmarks, and they confirm how CPU intensive csgo really is on the low res / low graphics http://www.notebookcheck.net/fileadmin/_processed_/csm_tabelle2_06_d50de321db.jpg and look at the last few, the desktop with the 7770 and the i5 and the 7970 and the same i5... there is only 1 frame difference because it is because of the processor.
I am looking to decide between a 8350 or 4670... I am on a budget of ~$600... and I will be purchasing a 7870 XT because that is all I need / want. I saw that tek syndicate had posted benchmarks for gaming https://teksyndicate.com/videos/amd-fx-8350-vs-intel-3570k-vs-3770k-vs-3820-gaming-and-xsplit-streaming-benchmarks and the 8350 absolutely dominates on the source engine game (black mesa).
For low resolution gaming on CS:GO which processor will be better? (I do plan on OCing the 8350 not a lot but have no intention of OCing the i5)
Please back up your answer. Dont just say "i5 because I hear intel isbetter"
