amd or intel i5 for online gaming

StanicEnemy · Aug 6, 2014

hello guys im gonna build a new gaming pc but i dont have enough knowledge between amd and intel i5 which processor is better for online gaming at full graphic ultra high like that

and I need suggestion for best graphic card for online gaming I have like 1300 TL it means turkish money idk dollar

online or not i5 is good for gaming but gaming requires GPU also so a good balance between these two would give u good fps in games .....

Amd is good on a budget i5 is good for pure performance, you have enough money to buy an i7 so get the i7 4970k

TopLuca · Aug 6, 2014

Don't buy an I7 , that won't give you any advantage in gaming . Invest in an i5 processor (4690 If you're not going to OC and 4690K if you're going to OC and you have a good Mobo Zxxx Series ) as well as a good Graphics card for the best gaming performance.

wrong i7 is a waste of money when it comes to pure gaming i7 is for rendering 3d modelling video editing stuff fin gaming pc i7 cannot show its full potential.....so i5 would be the best choice for gaming .....

ok but which i5 model is better?

StanicEnemy :

the latest one, the i5 4690k, it's what most people go for in a healthy budgeted intel rig

You guys do realize his budget is 1300 TL, not 1300$, right? According to currency coverters, that's ~600$. That's a pretty tight budget. I'd recommend the AMD FX 6300 for that budget. If you go with an i5, you'd have to get a crappy GPU.

gear999 :

I know

But he asked a question, it's only polite to answer it

gear999 · Aug 6, 2014

Yeah, to answer the question not considering the budget, the i5 should be distinctively better than any AMD CPU out there. But you can't beat AMD at price/performance, which is why I recommended the $115 FX 6300.

StanicEnemy · Aug 6, 2014

alright guys thanks for the answer, is there any graphic card that u can recommend?

TopLuca · Aug 6, 2014

StanicEnemy :

The R9-280X goes very well with the i5-4690K and is a total bang for your buck !!

TopLuca :

but that graphic card is so expensive in my country, is there another one? I want to enable physx thing in game I think nvdia is supporting that right? and last question which motherboard and ram would be nice?

Speakin of 600$ I think

TopLuca · Aug 6, 2014

If it is too expensive then look for the GTX 760 or the R9-270X
Good Motherboard : Z97-A From Asus
RAM : Gskill Ripjaws series are fine , Corsair are fine , Kingston are also fine and Crucial as well will do the deed for you.

TopLuca :

in short

cpu FX 6300. or i5 4690k
gpu gtx 760
ram corsair
mother board Z97-A From Asus

TopLuca · Aug 6, 2014

Be careful that the FX6300 won't work with the Intel processor

TopLuca :

TopLuca · Aug 6, 2014

StanicEnemy :

StanicEnemy · Aug 6, 2014

TopLuca :
