i5-3570k vs FX 8350? A friend who owes me money is offering

>>61340950
Only thing I can suggest
FX8350 - more threads for multitasking
i5 - better for gaming because less cores more power in the 4

>>61340950
3570k for sure

>>61340950
The gimped threadless 3570k beats the faildozer.

Unless- You want ECC support, then the FX has a MC that can handle ECC with a kernel module.

>>61340950
If you're gaming go with the i5

Sell both, and put that money towards an R5 1600 system.

>>61340950
3570K is better for sure

But you should sell it and get a Ryzen. Or ask him to sell it and buy a Ryzen.

>more threads foe multitasking
To what extent is the difference? Like, would chrome + text editor + spotify make a difference? I generally don't multitask with resource intensive programs like video editors and such.

How much is a Ryzen + mobo combo? Also, all my RAM is DDR3, so Id have to factor in that cost.

>>61341104
B350 mobo (~80) + 16 GB Ram (~80) + Ryzen 1600 (~200(180s with coupons))

80+80+200=360

8350 (~$100) + 3570K (~$130) + 8GB ram?(~$40) + mobo(~$50) = $320

360 - 320 = 40

Out of pocket spending is probably ~40

>>61341074
For a quad core, no not light programs except maybe maybe maybe chrome. I'm talking like gaming and livestreaming or maybe livestreaming editing. For your purposes I reccomend intel.

>>61341424
I actually have 4 sticks of 4GB DDR3 and 2 of 8GB DDR3 from the comp he's giving, so I could get a little more from that. However, would I really be able to get $100 and $130 from the 8350 and 3570? That seems pretty generous.

>selling computer parts
There is literally no reason to do this, otherwise you'll come back here and make a
>Hey /v/ my CPU just died recommend me new cheap ones to buy plzz :))
It's always good to have spare parts in case something happens, so don't sell it

>>61341558
Depends on your local market.

>>61341424
Doesn't ryzen benefits greatly from faster ram? He souldn't cheap out on the ram.
