Both AMD and Intel make CPUs that can take full advantage of the capabilities of the GTX 670, when installed in a properly configured system.

The question is which AMD or Intel CPUs are you asking about? Please be more specific in your question.

do u feel lags or tearing cuz if it was tearing then thats a normal thing while lags is abit strange ur cpu is still a good one undoutey an i 2500k is better in gamig but ur cpu should handle the game without any lags BTW it maybe sth wrong with the game or sth taking the CPU or GPU usage anyways try any other games that have high graphx as Far cry 3 , Metro and also see the FPS u get in BF3 u should exceed the 50FPs

And i quote:
"The good news for folks with Piledriver-based processors is that the FX-8350 is nearly as quick as Intel's Core i3-2100 (never mind the fact that the Core i3 costs $90 less)."
 

we all know that.we never talk about i3.In todays most games uses 2cores while few are 4 cores games.op has gtx 670 so we reccomend him i5 quad core as i5 quad would be much future proof for games than i3 as in future most games will use 4 cores.
