There are no other CPUs besides the FX 9590 and 9370 - Your CPU, but clocked higher. You can try overclocking. Otherwise, for gaming, this is a good option:
i have tried overclocking and it didnt go very well i just want to be able to play big multiplayer games and run them well i have a gtx 780 and im being held back cause of my processor

Warning: This power draw of this CPU is almost twice that of the average CPU. Due to this, AMD recommends using at minimum a 1000W power supply. For cooling, AMD recommends using either either closed loop liquid cooling or full system liquid cooling.
1000w is only necessary if you buy a crappy Coolmax or something. A quality 650-750w will handle an FX 9590 and a 780, as according to PCpartpicker, the combo would be about 575w, in a complete system. I would probably lean closer to the 750w, personally. I still agree that the CPU is a bad buy.
