For 150$ I picked up the FX-8350
And I have 0 complaints
Everyone on here will tell you to never buy AMD blah blah
But I don't care




OP has a FM2+ socket though.

Youre gonna need some badass cooler and psu for a 9590 making it more expensive than running a i7 which, is still better than the 9590


There used to be some crazy guy on here with a 9590 overclocked to 5.1ghz and 295x2 quadfire running 2 separate custom loops off a 1600w psu

It's probably just be a problem with the thermal paste, between the CPU and the CPU cooler.


But anyways... https://pcpartpicker.com/product/TqxfrH/amd-cpu-ad785kxbjabox


How about this one? https://m.newegg.com/Product/Index?itemNumber=N82E16819113410 going spec to spec on cpuboss it claims its better but im still new to everything so im not sure if it is even a reliable source or if it is even compatable with the rest my system?

Either one. The one I linked has a grfx component though.

Issue with amd's current shit is that theres no way to upgrade further from the 8350.

Thats why i3/i5 is more interesting choices


yes but honestly how much do you really need to constantly upgrade your processor?

I don't think the processor utilization of games has really increased much in years

Graphics utilization on the other hand has gotten insane

Look at the requirements for any game, most still only call for something middling
