AMD FX-8350 vs i7 3770?

[austenw23]

I'm getting a prebuilt computer because I HAVE to. My mom can't buy stuff online (somethings to do with her credit, idk) so I'm going to Best Buy today to look for a decent computer, and I'm looking at their website and it's absolute ***. Over-powered CPUs bottle-necked by $50 GPUs.. Anyway, besides the point. I found two different computers to choose from; one with a AMD FX-8350 8 core @ 4GHz, the other with an i7 3770 @ 3.4 GHz. Which one is the better buy for gaming? The computer with the i7 3770 is $150 more, so which one should I get? Also, the AMD FX-8350 has a Radeon 7570 and the i7 3770 has a nVidia GT630. Which one will overall perform better for CoD4 and Runescape?

Well core i7 is faster but fx8350 costs less . As suggested above go for an i5 .
