I have an MSI A88X-G43 motherboard and a Sapphire R9 270X graphics card. The two CPUs are the two highest models that my MOBO supports so I need to know which is better for gaming.

1. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

2. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

The second one is an older generation but has a higher clock speed. Any help would be appreciated

First one. You can over clock the first one if it ever gives you trouble.

I assume you mean the 7850K. Thank you! I bought that one and I'm very happy with it

Thank you, I ended up buying that one. I can't xfire with an r7 250 though. To be honest actually, I'm considering selling my 270x and buying a 290 because the prices on ebay are looking good lately
