fx 8320 or fx 6300

i have a hd 7870 XT graphics card, would it matter if i choose the fx 6300 or 8320 or does it make no difference?

Between those 2, it wouldn't make much difference. There would be a few applications where the 8320 would have an advantage, but those would be heavily threaded rendering/encoding type applications. If you're only gaming the FX6300 will be a fine CPU for you.

really the 8320 is better just because its basically the same thing as the 6300 just with two extra cores as they run at the same clock speed so really its if u want the two extra cores or not
