Help with new processor choice.

[thatbonokid]

I play mainly csgo. I currently have an fx 4350 that was given to me on a 990 motherboard. along with 8 gigs 1600 and a gtx 960 ssc.

My question is. Should I just grab the FX 8320e for 89$ which also comes with a free motherboard from micro center, so i could sell that and this fx 4350.

Or I could get a 4690k and motherboard and use the same ram and everything?

Or I could get the new generation of processors a motherboard and new ram.

I have the money, around 275 I can spend, 300 max.

This will be the place im going later today http://www.microcenter.com/ the deals are insane, and ill be getting an open box motherboard for either choice because you save about 35$

Amd kinda just... sucks :/

I miss my 4690k so much, but for 89$ practically free, I could get a fx 8320e and a motherboard. (after i sell this one itll be free.)

How is the performance difference between the ddr4 and socket 1151 and the 1150?

PLEASE THROW IN YOUR TWO CENTS. I have a benq 144hz, mech keyboard, the works.

New gen is likely out of the price range IMO but if that 4690k is feasible it would likely be your best bet

i can have that with a motherboard for well under 215.

6600k and the 4690k=same price 199.99. again, 35$ max motherboard.

Go for it then, grab some DDR4 and you're all set. I'd get the 6600K and a z170 mobo 3200 2x8 cl15 ram
The CAD to USD throws me off sometimes

now thats pushing it. If i get the 6600k. its a dirty little 40$ motherboard and 40$ 8 gigs, for now. im sure its faster than this amd **** regardless.

or i can get a 4590 and a motherboard for around 160.

I have an EVGA 960 ssc 2.0 whatever.

I can get a 970 for 150. I know i can sell my 960 for 150. should I do it?

Id grab a GPU now and wait until Zen/Kaby Lake releases to upgrade your CPU/Mobo/Ram...

 

[thatbonokid]

Would you use an FX 8320e or a a10 7850

 

[EarthDog]

Neither?

I would use whatever you have until that time. Clearly though the better processor is the 8320e over the APU...
