Don't waste your money on an FX 9590. They are overpriced, overclocked, FX 8350's. Put your build together using pcppartpicker and you will get a wattage estimate.

I agree with Logain, get an 8350. The heat generated from the 9590 is crazy with the 220w. You can OC the 8350 on CLC to 5 no problem.
But yes, your PSU is of the highest quality.

I already have water cooled 8350 + 16 gb ram .. but ive heard 9590 will give me a strong boost in gaming ..
As mwntioned i do have 7950 crossfire and i game on 2560x1440 ... What do you advice me guys ?

Whats your 8350 OC'd to currently?

zacksparrow · Jul 18, 2014

Im not overclocking it perhaps few times via catalist control center ... Im not an overclocking pro .. but i do have thermal take 3.0 extreme water cooler ...

I also have thermal take core v71 extreme case with over 8 fans of cooling ... So the temps in my case are very good ...

So what do you suggest me fellow respectable members ? Im not a pro when it comes to overclocking thats why i wanted to upgrade to the 9590 but as i mentioned im not a pro so i will follow your advices ... Whether to go with the 9590. Or oc my 8350 ...
Another concern is my 2 7950 cards ... Do ypu advice me to keep them for now or trade them towards an upgrade ? I never had issues with them i game on 2560 x 1440 and they are pretty keeping up ... I thought about adding another 7950 but i didnt find clear info on whether my boars would support or not .. my other choice was crossfiring 2r9 290 though ill pay a big sum ... Ao what do you guys advice me ... Ill follow your advices because im really distracted ina very confusing way ...

Thanks for your time ...

Not all games support crossfire well, I would probably want to go with a single powerful card. Definitely would overclock the FX 8350 vs getting a 9590 + watercooler. For that cost you could switch to a faster Xeon (aka poor man's i7) setup.

logainofhades :

+1 going the xeon route, This will not only save you a shock on your electricity bill and let the pc live longer under less heat, but also outperform the 9590 by quite far.
