Hello everyone, I'm trying to decide if my build is actually good or not. I found a lot people score higher than me and I want your opinions on my scores.
First my specs
AMD FX-8320 4.1 MHz
MB: Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3
12GB 1600 RAM
Coolmax 950w
EVGA GTX 780 SC ACX
Scores
EVGA GTX 780 SC
http://www.3dmark.com/fs/2706924
Here is my EVGA GTX 780 SC overclocked to +75core/225memory
http://www.3dmark.com/fs/2706888
I know for sure my physics score is low, what can I do about it? My GPU and CPU temps are fine. I always check them.
so, what do you think?

You could also get an i5-4690K is you want to save some money. In games it still way outperforms the 83x0, and it's kind off the go-to CPU for gaming these days.Otherwise, the i7-4790K is an absolute beast, can't go wrong with it.
No, it's not about saving money. I was going to go for i7-4790K. I just don't feel comfortable with Intel,don't know why.
But it's gonna be i7-4790K for sure.

I love AMD too, AMD always gives me this vibe that their CPUs are built in a forge, by a man with a beard and a hammer
Intel just seems so... clean, sterile.That score is about what I'd expect from your setup really, close to a 4770K with a Titan but not quite there because of the CPU. It's still the physics score that's holding you back, not the graphics scores. Those seem about right really.
Can't believe I'm gonna switch to intel after +5 years with AMD
but it's all for the best of my card
would it help if I got FX-8350
?

Don't get an FX-9590, they're actually industrial heaters disguised as CPUs.Seriously though, you're much better off if you get a 4690K and a Z97 motherboard. You can probably do that at the price of a FX-9590, if not less. The 9590 uses massive amounts of power and it produces massive amounts of heat and its performance simply doesn't justify that.
I always had an AMD as a cpu for my builds. I just like them even though intel cpus give better performance in gaming. Maybe I'll consider a new build when DDR4 rams come out with the new cpus.
turns out my cpu wasn't actually overclocked. I overclocked CPU to 4.4 MHz, GPU +85/300 and I got this score.

not worried anymore about the physics score. I mainly considered about the graphics score. Is it good?
Thank you. Appreciate it.
