I'm looking at either an AMD fx 6350 or 8350.
Wondering if the 8350 is worth the extra $35.
Any advice will help.

Here's the setup I'm looking at in case you need it: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/My_GamingPC/saved/7tV2FT

Hell yeah. 6350 won't let you run much in the way of a GPU or run many CPU intensive games at all. Better still though would be an i5 4690k.

Yes it is 100% worth it, the difference is significant enough for gaming.

However, doing an amd build right now isn't the best you can do for a gaming rig. If you switch to an intel build, like an i5 4690K, that will be faster than any fx 8350 (including 8370).

Between the 6350 and the 8350, go with the 8350.

if this is for gaming only, why not i5?
get 212 hyper evo, its better than 212 plus.
but if you insist amd, ill go with 6350 so you can get better card
