It really depends on what you play for any bottleneck situation.

Looking at other owners of the FX 6300, and the 380x, there is some bottleneck, and you will need to overclock the CPU for the best results. You might as well go full on and get an 8320 anyway. Depends on your motherboard of course, and the price. (Zen is also coming out soon!)

I can get a 8300 its pretty much the same performance. i have this. https://www.amazon.com/M5A78L-M-Plus-USB3-MicroATX-Motherboard/dp/B01FN9QT34/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1472403991&sr=8-1&keywords=asus+m5a78l-usb%2F3

I would recommend you to go with Skylake I5 if you can you will get much better performance in games

omg another intel comment i dont want intel i dont got the money for it i only got 200 dollars to spend on a mobo and cpu so no i cant go intel.

popeyetyty :

Ok sorry i didn't know,but keep in mind that you will have bottleneck no matter which AMD cpu you buy if you planning to use it for gaming

No no its okay, its just when most Intel people comment to get Intel they wont stop talking about it, and okay i wanted a I3 6100 but it dont support DDR3 at 1.5V cause the Memory Controller.

popeyetyty · Aug 28, 2016

Is there a intel CPU/MOBO that supports DDR3 at 1.5V for 200 to 205 maybe 210?

Ivan96 · Aug 28, 2016

popeyetyty :

I don't know prices at where you at but it should be some combination like that

Ivan96 :

Im in America california area. But idk any CPU's of intels that support 1.5V ddr3.

Ivan96 · Aug 28, 2016

popeyetyty :

Oh i forgot skylake uses DDR4,well your only option then is to go with Haswell but i don't recommend I3

Why not I3 they are still better than FX series CPU's? And can the I3-4150 run my Kingston HyperX Fury 1.5V ram?

Ivan96 · Aug 28, 2016

You will get better performance with FX 8320 than with i3 and if you overclock it it will do a lot better but keep in mind that you will have to buy good cooler for overcloking

I have a Hyper 212 EVO

popeyetyty · Aug 28, 2016

Im seeing better performance in the 4130 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNt_KS0UUhI

Ivan96 · Aug 28, 2016

popeyetyty :

Well i just looked some benchmarks and looks like i3 4150 beats FX 8320 in gaming so maybe it's better to go with i3

And also you can upgrade it later to i5 or even i7

popeyetyty · Aug 28, 2016

nvm that can also be wrong

popeyetyty :

Well i guess they are almost equal but keep in mind that you can not upgrade fx 8320 later but i3 you can

popeyetyty · Aug 28, 2016

Okay what 50-65 dollar mobo supports the CPU and ddr3 ram? Does the CPU support 1.5V ddr3? (I3-4150) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157512&cm_re=Asrock_H97M_Pro4-_-13-157-512-_-Product

popeyetyty :

Yes i think that mobo will work fine or you can find a cheaper one if you want,also cpu does support 1.5v ram you can see it here http://ark.intel.com/products/77486/Intel-Core-i3-4150-Processor-3M-Cache-3_50-GHz
