Is there really that much of a difference between these two cpus?? Will there by any performance differences if I am using a gtx 760 for the gpu????
 
Solution
No, get the cheaper one. You can always overclock the cheaper one by a little and get the same performance as the more expensive one.
Not really. They're basically the same CPU, however one is overclocked compared to the other. Save the 10$ and overclock it yourself if you feel the need of it.

The FX 6300 will be the perfect match to your GPU, they're a well balanced and will compliment each other nicely. :)

So will be more cost efficient if i get a fx 6300 with a 970-g43 and a cm hyper 212 evo plus, and over clock the cpu???
- (also sorry for asking this in this section, but will it not bottleneck the gtx 760??)
 
the 6300 and 6350 are the exact same cpu. the difference is the 6350 is set at a higher stock speed. you can easily overclock the 6300 to match the 6350... and both will have similar max overclocks.

get the cheaper one.



unless you plan on adding heatsinks to that motherboard i would not overclock ANYTHING plugged into that board. That is not an overclocking motherboard. It has low quality and few vrm, and no heatsinks for them or the northbridge. If you overclock with that board you'll run the risk of killing the board and cpu both.
