ElycinProcessor Wise? Intel, the new Haswells i7s Come with 4 cores and 8 Threads stock,
Hyperthread it for 16 threads. Monster performance.


... What?

@OP - It depends on what you're trying to do, OP. If all you're doing is gaming, go with the 8350.

Im an Hardcore AMD user, but intel did good on that move.

If you are just gaming get a FX-6300 or FX-4300. Save your money and save up for a better graphics card later.

AMD Is the same as Intel more or less without the over priced bullshit. Not only that if your getting a GPU grab an AMD for gaming.

I have i5 on my computer and it works great! If you get the i7 trust me it will work wonders.

Well definitely don't get that i7 if you are only doing gaming. In terms of gaming the difference between i5/i7 is minimal, so if you were going to go with Intel, I would suggest a i5 4670k, since its cheaper, and also a very good processor still. And since it uses a 1150 socket its more "future proof".
