The FX9590 would most closely compare to the i7 4790k. Both of them are 4 Physical, 8 Logical, Cored processors.

The 5960X has 8 physical cores and 2 logicals per physical so 16 total threads versus the previous two processors. You cant compare the 5960X to any AMD consumer cpu.

I know, but where are the 16 thread programs or games. ?


For busines..modeling etc....sure go Intel...for gaming...don't really matter.


/e All ya really need for gaming is 60fps on Ultra. Well OK, 80fps for an fps. Hell my AMD 955 @ 3.8 Ghz / GTX 280 could get 1000 fps on D2.


/ee ....and for cooling...you could cool any AMD on air at full OC....cept the 9000 series.

/e  Exactly,  and a better PSU, case, RAM, SSD, mobo....  etc.


/e  Honestly it's really a tossup.


I'm not saying an AMD can compete with a hi end Intel, however...I don't see the NEED for a hi end Intel...cept for bench marks.


Both will play the games adequately..so why spend all the money on the CPU.


Cos idiats with no career jobs at least need the big dik intel status Herr derr

& remamber amd for poor, intel for rich, so if poor and get intel u r rich nao

i'd go with AMD personally, since you won't notice the difference with intel for the average consumer.

PRO's for Intel
better single threaded performance
lower power consumption

Con's
More expensive then AMD
rarely used to it's full potential to make it a justifiable over AMD which is cheaper.
too many dumb fanboys.

PRO's for AMD
cheaper
better multi threaded performance until you go compare to the higher end, but they are too expensive compared to what AMD has to offer for the money most of the time.


Con's
Higher power consumption
lower single threaded performance.
ghot has an AMD cpu.

understand if intel saves you time, yes add those seconds/minutes up, over an expected 1 yr cycle you think it added up to couple hours? well couple hours is money

time=money

intel saved you money, which you paid up front for the better processor period

AMD FX-8350 Black Edition Vishera 8-Core 4.0GHz (4.2GHz Turbo) = $180

AMD FX-9590 Vishera 8-Core 4.7GHz = $220

Intel Core i7-5960X Haswell-E 8-Core 3.0GHz = $1049


/e  Sure the Intel is the better CPU...but it's also a monthly house payment  lol


ya cause it totally takes a 5690X to equal a 8350
LMFAO

Doesnt save me time, if I'm not using it to full potential. For example, I only play cs/stream 1-2 hr a day. Only thing intel does for me is allowing me to play few extra seconds longer? Sure overtime, it'll add up to hours etc. But I gain no benefit from that cos it's not like the amount of extra hours adding up later will do anything. Whoo pee doo I get 1 extra kill or get rekt for the extra time saved.

However if I'm making a living off of making promo vids or something then hell yeee
