Any of the 4th Gen i5s compete (an i5 with the number 4xxx). If you want to overclock, then go for the i5 4670k.

Dude, are you aware that the i5 4670k costs around 235$ and fx-8320 costs around 170$?

If you are looking for an intel couterpart to fx-8320, you are should consider the i5 3470. It outperforms fx-8320 in everything but games that utilize 6/8 cores. It costs around 20$ more than the fx-8320.

i5 3570 is basically the same, it just gives you 0.2 GHz per core.

Then you are aware the OP wants an intel equivalent of the 130$ fx8320... which doesnt exist.

I thought they were like $160? Anyway, I was just talking in terms of roughly similar performance.

He's pretty clear on the price, not just performance. 8320's have been on sale for 129$ on newegg about a dozen times in the past 2 months. Even still, the cost isn't just the cpu. The mother boards are drastically more expensive for the intels as well.
