hi!!

well i'm from mexico, here the intel CPU are very overpriced right now, so i wont pay almost 300usd for a 4590-4590S (well in mexico the 4590 is the only one available and i thinck is the right one for me, the 4440 is the one i could afford)

a partner of mine will go to McAllen...
i search for a microcenter, or fry's store there but i cant find any place but best buy which has almost the same prices than here... (but they sell the 4590S for only 200usd)

i will pair it with a R9 270x... dont know if even a pentium G3258 could be enough to play 60Hz 1080p most tittles, the new ones and "oldies" such as GTV IV (my OCed phenom II X4 cant max it out with a 60hz FPS rate)

so, where i can find a good place to buy it??

regards!! PC gamers master race!!

hi guys... thanks for your advices...

well maybe a was exaggerating a little... the actual price is like 220 for the 4570 :p i had forgot the change price

it just kicks me in the ass to see the price in microcenter, if you purchase in stores the 4590 costs only 160!!!!! its a steal!!!
i loocked at tiger direct but i didnt realice the savings.... but thats just variable; maybe this guy will go on the black fridays eve
so i thinck there is a very good chance to find it at 200USD which its the price i would like to pay for.

well just tell me another thing... i already have an 880G motherboard and a phenom II X4... does the core i5 4590 will really kicks the phenom and FX such as the 8320 @ 4GHz that hard (i mena for gaming, for all the other stuff i do, the phenom still works fine)??

Admirable
Depends on what GPU you pair it with, if you only use a 270x both will perform nearly the same, but with 2 280x/290x in crossfire the intel cpu will do better. In other words, you'll not be CPU limited with that phenom using only a single 270x

hahahaha ok... tell that to GTA IV (playing the expantions right now with impove textures details and that stuff) well the main problem with phenom II is that the FP rate is so unstable, also a lot of energy, and every second that passes the less i'l get if i sell the cpu+mobo combo (maybe for 120 buks and i'l thank god XD) since i have an asus M5a88-m i dont know if i could even run a 8320 at 4.0GHz thats the main reason to go with intel... i scrued up with the mother board so this time i'll go with a gygabyte gamer 5 micro ATX and a G3258 at least. also i think going to intel is the only way right now to have a real upgrade

by the way do you think a FX 83xx will run only at stock speed with my courrent mother board?? right now my phenom is stable with @ 3.84GHZ with 1.43V on vcore (i would save 200usd) with a hyper 212+ or save some money and go with intel all the way?

i really apreciate your advices :)
