Cpu for gaming.

thanasiskant · Aug 25, 2015

I am going to upgrade the system of my pc. The cost for all of them is the same so its just a thing of performance only. The purpose is only hard core gaming, twich etc.

The choices are
1) i7 2600
2)FX 8350
3)i5 4570

For gaming and streaming (Twitch) I would go with the i7-2600, especially with the eventual release of DX12 which supposedly utilizes HT more effectively.

yeah but since the DX12 is released doesnt mean that amd with 8core get boost too and its even better for multi application? ( sorry if its a stupid question but i am not so well aware of the new DX12)

The FX 8350 performance is more around the I5 performance, and thats when its overclocked. The I7 (even though its a bit older) will perform much better in gaming and mult-threaded apps.
