With the high end cooling, PSU & motherboard you need to run a FX9xxx CPU it will be much cheaper and far more reliable to get an i5. You need to compare the total cost of the setup and due to the ridiculous power requirements and heat produced by the FX9590 all the other components have to be high end. The cheaper i5 will perform better in games too

Dont make a mistake.
The FX 9590 has a massive 220 Watt power draw requiring high end board and a high end CPU cooler.
For the same price you should be able to get a i5 6500 and get better gaming performance, or even a 6600K after you factor in the cost of the board, cooler, and not needing as large of a power supply.
