I'd say go for the i5 coz it's more powerful core by core. I haven't seen any game yet that fully utilizes 8 cores
Hi guys! I need some help to make a decision between chosing these 2 CPUs. If you have a good build with one of them, pls share with me! TY

For gaming is better i5 but for multithreading choose FX .
The build is coming
Well if you are building from the ground up with a good amount of money go with a i5 build on the other hand if you already have a decent pc go with the cpu your mobo can support
i5 triumphs in the gaming world however if you are one to do video editing, rendering etc, go with the AMD one. Plus those stock AMD are loud as if you aren't going to use an aftermarket one..
