It will depend on the rest of the system .
But generally either choice will work just as well
one has 4cores and the other has 8 and the i5 is better in single threading gaming but the amd is better in multithreading gaming so which should i choose and does the games mostly use single or multi threading
i5 has better IPC..
Mostly games right now optimize for 4 core or less..and just a few will use more than 4.
so..
we can assume for today games and maybe next year, intel still better gaming processor than amd..
and..
because i5 has better ipc, clock per clock efficiency is more than fx processor, even if the can utilize 6 theads, i5 will slightly better..
