Hello I just wanted to know what I can expect from the amd fx-8320.
It will primarily be used to games. I am gonna play watch dogs, battlefield and far cry most.
The graphic card is Asus Radeon r9-280 top oc 3gb dualfan

8320 does better than i5 on passmark scores, and its cheaper. Also if you multi task (play game while listening to music and have a web browser open) 8320 will do better. I just built an amd system for my father in law and he plays hitman absolution and sniper elite 3 on ultra with no problems. Just get a good cooler like a hyper 212 evo and a 990fx motherboard.

TBH you can get an i5 4670 or an FX 6300 as long as you have a r9 280 + video card you can play all those 1080p games on ultra with great FPS. Go ahead and get an i5 but if you don't know how to overclock, get the locked one which is cheaper and the H87 motherboard not the z87. Trying to save you some money.
