Hi guys, I'm thinking about upgrading my CPU. Right now, I have an FX6300 @4GHz, and to be honest: it is not what I expected. Everyone told me: 'it's a real bang-for-the-buck', but it doesn't perform really well in multiplayer games (singleplayer is good, I got a HD 7970). That's why I need your help.
Should I go for an FX8350 with a good 990FX chipset MB, or should I go for an Intel (4690k, 4770k, ...)? I play A LOT of Arma III and Battlefield 4, and (especially in Arma) my fps drop to the point where it gets unplayable (+- 20fps or less). BF4 drops to around 35fps on 64 player battles. Also plan to play GTA V.
I know the Intel choice is more expensive, but will it be worth the investement? I'm probably gonna buy a used one.
And please, fanboys, stay away.
