Yeah but my question was about gaming on lastest games.
And if i upgrade for a better graphics card the intel CPU will not bottleneck the better GPU if i upgrade in future.

Have anyone else with opinion about that?

That anandtech test its not in gaming. My PC is for gaming, i have a good laptop for work when i need.
But for better proof in future if i put a much better GPU like 290x later the intel CPU will not bottleneck the grphics card?
The AMD CPU its not better for future because have more cores and i can OC it, so for a later graphics card the AMD its better or not?


The Intel setup will be more future proof. Here is the FX-8350 (AMD 8 Core) VS an Intel I5 3570K (intel 4 core)

if the 4 core Intel I5 beats the 8 core AMD FX almost any 4 core Intel I5 will beat the 6 core AMD FX.

Even if for a 3/4 years old pc?
And even if i put a better GPU after 2 years, for exemple a 290x the PCU will not bottleneck the GPU?
For that its not better a fx 6300 because i can OC that PCU?
And the mobo on intel is good or there is other better for the price?
