was absolutety trash,
I regret every day of my life buying an fx cpu instead of a i5

You could overclock an fx63xx to match an Ivy bridge i5 in performance while paying the same price as an i3, or slightly less.

>There are people on here who unironically buy inferior processors just because they feel its their duty to support the underdog

Is there public wifi in your designated shitting street, OP?

Who the fuck cares about Ivy Bridge? You may as well just say AMD is better because the K6 kicked Intel's ass.

Are you an idiot?

I5 is still relevant, fx not. Not to mention it used twice as much power.

>everything now taking advantage of more threads
>fx not relevant
Still matching a skylake I3 despite being released to compete with I3 processors from 4 years ago. AMD gambled on multithread processing hard and it's paying off for its users.

I bought an i3 3225
Suck it.

> i5 3470 instead of an fx8350
That's a good choice. Similar performance while using MUCH, MUCH less power is a damn good deal.

The idiots who bought i3 instead of FX6300 are sad though.

I bought a FX8350 but had to upgrade to a 4690K.
Should have gotten a 2500K instead.

>using 20% less power while costing 20% more
Why does that matter if you're not using a laptop?

Oh no, I have to pay $2 extra annually! Nooooooooooooooooooooooo

It probably doesn't matter for Muricans but given the electricity prices in Europe, it can make quite the difference. Besides even as Amerifat, once it passes a certain point, AMD becomes more expensive with every month and given that both FX8350 and i5 are poorfag CPUs, it's likely that they will be used for a while.

movie?

Ausfag here with an fx 8320 running at 4.4GHz, I use my desktop every few nights to load up some games with my mates, otherwise I use my phone/laptop for everything else. If you don't use your pc 24/7 it won't matter.

Only issue is that this thing is a fucking furnace.

Well, it obviously depends on the user. If you keep it as gayming box only, it's not a big deal.

>Only issue is that this thing is a fucking furnace.
Seems like a non-issue tbqh, just get a decent cooler. Even most 20+ bucks ones would do.

that amd cpu is like 3 years + now. Dunno why everyone here shilling for that dual core i3 than fx.

Smart people.

> >there are people on this board who bought an i5 2500/3470 instead of an fx8350
I switched from 8320 to i5-2400S and overclocked it to 3,1 GHz for GTA V. FPS rate is lower than on FX-8320. I want to go back.

I've got a decent cooler, but now it's dumping all that heat into my room. Can't wait for winter though.

I got a 4770k for $135 as an employee discount fucko

>I switched from 8320 to i5-2400S
What the fuck made you think that it's worth it? Hell, getting a new board alone for basically non upgrade kills any sense in that.

I got a Z77 board for free and got three CPUs off eBay hoping I can resell them in my country. So it wasn't too bad and I can try to implant a UEFI driver for NVMe boot now.

Sauce?

i noticed this with my fx 8350 at stock, when the temp outside was 50f, it would be 78f inside and i would actually have to turn on the AC because the heat from my computer would warm the entire appartment

>look how this heavily overclocked CPU almost matches one at stocks speeds :^)

Literally kys

My fx-8320 idles at freezing 5degreee C and under Prime 95 load at 44
Maybe you should fix your PC instead of accusing that poor fx Chip.

by drawing 2x power from the wall?

yo dawg, i heard you have not heard about TDP

I'll buy a space heater if I need one

You wouldn't need more than an evo 212 for an overclocked fx6300.

Why are you even posting when you're so tech illiterate?

>There are people on this board who sincerely care about what other people on this board buy

Tragic

Don't get a FX6300 unless you're planning something stupid like a budget distcc server (very unlikely). I got one ironically for a laming PC a year and a half back and It really does suck.

>he bought an FX-8350 instead of a $70 E5-2670

Pajeet, poo somewhere else...

what kind of dreamworld are amdrones living in? seriously? as bad as Intel might be, theyre so ahead of amd that its funny to watch how they try so hard to catch up. Intel doesnt need to even try hard anymore. Just look at the i7 7700k. They barely upgraded their i7 line cause amd is still trying to catch up with their last gen i5's.

>turn on the ac
proof that amd faggots are fucking retarded
there's this thing called a window
you can open it when it's colder outside than inside
it will allow the cool air to enter your overheated ayymd room
this saves you money on your electric bill
if you do this long enough you will be able to afford a superior processor and avoid such shenanigans

>bought a celeron g1840 instead of a $50 amd processor
:((
granted i had in mind to upgrade to an i5 later on

>Tfw you have a FX-6300 and a damn GTX 1070

I like these wandering wizards...

The i3 is a newer platform. Even if you get a $45 h110 motherboard,you could upgrade to a used i7 7700 in 3-4 years. If you're the type to buy an entirely new system every time you upgrade, then the FX 6300 and i3 6100 are of comparable value.
