New to this forum, need help choosing between the Intel Core i5 3570k and the AMD FX 8350 for gaming. From what I've seen from other topics, the 3570k is better, but on sites like Legit Reviews, the 8350 is right behind the Intel i7 3370k. Here's the link to the page: http://www.legitreviews.com/article/2055/5/
Also, on PassMark CPU Lookup, the benchmark tests were way above the i5. Link to the page http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu_lookup.php?cpu=Intel+Core+i5-3570K+%40+3.40GHz
What are your thoughts for a better gaming CPU and why? And if you guys could recommend other good gaming CPU's at around $250ish, that would be great.
Thanks in advance!
