I currently have an FX6100 and a GTX650 and am thinking of upgrading to a FX8320/8350 and a R9280x. I have a Hyper212Evo so cooling shouldn't be a problem, and NO I will not scrap my rig and get an intel rig so please don't leave those comments.

Make sure your motherboard supports Vishera CPUs. If it doesn't, then its BIOS will have to be updated to support it.

Toss it and get an I5. Just kidding, yes, that will be a nice upgrade, if you can afford it a R9 290 for ~$400 will be a more noticable upgrade.
