Wehat is best i5 for gaming?

[mansfield]

I had an AMG-fx and I want an i5

The best is simply the Core i5-3570k because it can be overclocked. If do not want to overclock at all, ever, then it would be the i5-3570.

Are you trolling again mansfield?. lol its the 3570k like said before

They are all about the same for game benchmarks.

Although, throwing away an 8350 seems a bit rash, as that's an excellent processor, too.

I have a amd 6300 stock it bottleneckes my 7970ghz. i had to overclock it too get rid of the bottleneck. considering the 8350 is like the 6300 one more module i wouldnt really says its awesome especially considering at the price point of the 8350 you can get a i5 3570 for the same price. The only amd cpu i think is alright is the 4300/6300 since there price points are decent

fx 8350 is 50 bucks cheaper with tax. u can get them for as low as $189
and the gaming performance is amazing it killed the i3 and is only a few fps off from the 3570k amd
heres some gaming benchmarks

The best I5 for gaming is the Core i5-3570k. It's fast and can easily be overclocked.
