i7 2600 vs i5 2500K vs FX 8350

celtic_warrior99 · May 2, 2016

Hi, which of the CPUs would be best for gaming. I play games such as Minecraft, Rocket League, Flight Sim X and Need For Speed. WIth the i5 and 8350 i can overclock but i cant get a decent price on the 2600k. So its either unlocked i5/fx 8350 or locked 2600. Which is best for gaming?? I assume ill be able to overclock both the fx 8350 and 2500k to around 4.5ghz according to other peoples results. I will be upgrading from an i3 4160. CHeers

Post a list of your current components, your budget and country you will buy parts. Once we have that we can give you the best advice for parts.

Parts are all in my signature. I am buying pre-used from gumtree. The 2600, fx 8350 and 2500k are all around the same price. I dont have the budget for a 4690K ATM.

Maybe i shoudl just go with an i5 4590 i coudl get fro cheap.

Yeah I would probably go for the i5 4590 or the i5 4690 and it means the CPU is the only part you need to replace. Probably get one for around £100 on Ebay if you don't mind getting 2nd hand.
