Hello everyone, quick question I'm wondering if the R9 270x will be a good pair with the Amd Fx 8350. I'm at a $800 budget for my first gaming pc. I currently have the Msi R9 270x Oc on my pc part list with a 550w psu from Corsair. Thanks

If he wants to stay at 1080 for another generation (4 years) the a 6300 is enough.

Considering your budget and what you seem to want out of the pc i would say a 270 + 6300 will keep you nicely for 3-4 years. Then you can save up some more and go ballz deep on the next upgrade.

Also for what it's worth Mantle games will be very light on the CPU as you can see from the oxide demo (an 8350 was down clocked to 2 GHz and there was no FPS loss).

Yeah I've been trying to do research i wouldn't upgrade until i needed to and i don't plan on over clocking the cpu. So you would suggest a setup like a Amd fx 6300 with the R9 270x. I'm trying to avoid bottlenecking. I'm trying to learn as much I can about computers I've just started learning from Linus tech tips from YouTube a couple months ago and watching build tutorials. I wanna play Cod ghosts and Bf4 on high settings without going below 30 fps. As far as other games if it can handle Bf4 I'm sure it can handle pretty much everything else. Thanks for everyone's time

I currently have FX-6300+ 270X Hawk in my pc and BF4 runs at 40-70 FPS with average of 50 FPS without AA (1920x1080). I would personally choose FX-8320 because games are starting to use more cores and in a long run you will benefit from those 2 extra cores.

yeah I agree with Datcu Alexandru, Im planning on playing at 1080p on high settings for 3-4 years until games start to get ridiculous and my frames drop to not being playable. And I seen the same thing with mantle that's why I wanted to go with Amd. I read somewhere else that the new consoles use Amd for the cpu+gpu. Anyways that sums it up I have my answer thank you everyone for your input and time. God bless
