I've watched it before. You're correct the 8320/8350 are better than the 3570k for streaming alone, but considering the 3570k isn't even close to having a problem, it overclocks higher and runs the games better, why would you suggest the 8320?

Because it fits within the original $700 budget and is still really good for streaming.

Off-hand, do you really expect me to take you seriously after you originally suggested the i3 for streaming?

I suggested my builds based on the gaming experience for the money, added the next build as a more in depth build that could do it all.

Would u be able to make a build using the 8350 for me? using the same Graphics card? the HIS 7850 iceQ x turbo 2GB?

Would be interested to see what you come up with, including ur choice of power supply. Thnx :3 its also cheaper than the i5 3570K but i noticed the mobo's for the AMD's are abit more expensive though.

To fit within your $700 budget, yes.

And about mobos being more expensive, yes, they are. Then again, I wouldn't go too cheap on a Z77 mobo. The ASRock Z77 Pro3 I was previously pushing has some quality problems, which is why I stopped suggesting it, just like Corsair's CX430/500 PSUs.

CPU: ASUS M5A97 R2.0 Motherboard - $105.00
Mobo: AMD FX-8350 8 Core Processor - $212.00
GPU: HIS Radeon HD7850 IceQ X Turbo 2GB - $199.00
PSU: Corsair VS550 ATX Power Supply - $62.00
RAM: Corsair CMX8GX3M2B1600C9 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 - $59.00
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 500GB ST500DM002 - $55.00

Sub-Total: $692.00

Exactly $1 less for a better CPU, lesser RAM, lesser HDD space, and a lesser GPU.

I can already see his electricity bill rising with that, haha :P http://techreport.com/r.x/amd-fx-8350/x264-power-peak.gif

The build will do whatever is needed but I'd still go for the 3570k with parts. Though what he suggested is within the budget.

Again, if you'd do your research, you'd discover that his bill will go up by about $20-$30 over a span of 3-4 years.

I guess that was your last straw. You're an Intel fanboy, and it shows. :)

Why are you so hostile? I'm not a fanboy, I make reasonable claims. You either take things too personally or you got issues.

You're assuming I'm being hostile. Assumptions are the mother of all fuck-ups. You fucked up.

To your "reasonable claim..."

I don't see the problem, when overclocking the 8350 you actually lose money over a 3 year period, compared to just buying the 3570k, he even says it himself. Considering you can even overclock the 3570k higher, that's yet another reason to go for it. You're too dense to argue with though.

I'm not dense. I just don't make multis, pretend to be new, and jump to the CHD for shits and giggles.
