Processors

[conradarizona]

hello guys

currently I have a FX 6300 CPU installed on a Asus Sabertooth 990FX R3.0

and I was looking around to upgrade my CPU to max out my motherboard without burn it

so there are any differences between the FX 8350 vs the FX 8370 ???

and where I can find a store where I can actually buy a NEW FX CPU without end to get a refurbished or used one ???

thanks ...!!!

8350s are on Amazon for $139 with Wraith cooler, Amazon.com: AMD FX 8-Core Black Edition FX-8350 Processor with Wraith Cooler (FD8350FRHKHBX): Comput... but honestly you'll be much better off to hold off until AMD releases the 4 core 8 thread Ryzen processors in June and do a complete system update. They're much faster per clock than the 8350 (50%) as well as more power efficient.

Here is a comparison of the two.  http://www.cpu-world.com/cgi-bin/CompareParts.pl?PART1=AMD_FD8350FRW8KHK&PART2=AMD_FD8370FRW8KHK

Check online at Newegg.com for prices and availability.

honestly I stay with my old FX series

since Ryzen show some issues

then is better wait for the 2 ryzen generation
