I need some advice. I'm already on an FX 4300 system with 8 GB of RAM and an R9 270x. I find that rendering in Maya is so slow.

I was thinking of getting an FX 8320 + a new mobo for overclocking. Will the 8 cores speed up my rendering? If so, then how big will the improvements be? Do you have any other suggestions that won't be too heavy on the wallet?

I'm currently a jobless college student so saving up enough money for an upgrade is going to take awhile...

the extra threads will help.
Depending on software, that might utilize IGP compute, then the i5 will win by far.
