As the title says, which one is better? I've heard the 8320 can handle the same clocks like 8350, with appropriate cooler (nocuta nh-d14)
In my country difference is like 35€, so if its the same, I'd better invest it in something else..
Cheers

If you're sold on AMD then get the 8350 as it will clock further than the 8320 since it starts with a higher clock. You're probably gonna get alot of buy an intel replies. If you're going to game either on of the amd chips with a decent gpu will play any game you put at it just fine.

Go with the 8320 since it is cheaper. If you are for sure wanting to try to push a chip to it's OC limits though the 8350 will be the better choice. On a Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD5 motherboard and having a Corsair H80i cooling it, I have an 8350 OC'd to 4.6Ghz with a slight FSB OC as well. If I didn't do the FSB OC I could hit 4.7Ghz with the multiplier only. Its a very nice and reliable CPU. I, however, built a rig with the 4790K and there a notable difference in performance in every regard.

FX-8320 and FX-8350 are same. The only difference is FX-8350 is overclocked FX-8320 and have little more room for overclocking. FX-8320 is more economically best choice. I have FX-8320 and it doesn't feel anything less than FX-8350.

I think I'm going with the FX 8320 going to clock it to 4,4GHz , goin' to pair it up with a XFX R9 280X and a Gigabyte GA-990XA- UD3 mobo, until i get the money for the intel :/
