    That looks pretty sweet. Very nice set up.

    Makes me want to build another.

    I looked at your list of parts, all great parts. I love the AMD FX series, I have one in my current PC.

    Have to disagree with you there. Intel definitely puts out more powerful CPU's: intel currently and always have made more powerful CPU's. It's the same with Nvidia and AMD, Nvidia always has a more powerful card out. I've tried both sides, I definitely prefer Intel and Nvidia over the latter.

    It must just be the intel processers I have owned I have had lots of core duo and i3 and had a i5 and they weren't that powerful I'm sure if I owned a powerful intel processor I would say something else

    Really the main reason is the price this intel i5 is $230.00
    It's 3.4 ghz quad core
    My processor is 3.8 quad core it runs 3.8 I checked bios it is it was $99.99

    I know it must be better in some way if its 130 bucks more but that fx gives me performance

    And the Xeon holy crap they are expensive

    Yeah intel is pretty pricey mainly because they have no competition. Intel's put off a lot less heat and run a lot faster, plus they have there overclock ability.

    This card here Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz LGA 1155 77W Quad-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 4000 BX80637I53570K - Newegg.com for 230, which may be the one you were talking about is a mid range cpu for Intel, but it's faster than any AMD cpu on the market atm. It's the best CPU at the movement as far as price for performance goes. Easily over clockable to 4.3 Ghz without having to increase the voltage, just need an after market cooler.

    Here is a chart that ranks CPU's with there performance. It's pretty handy when upgrading:
    Gaming CPU Hierarchy Chart - Best Gaming CPUs For The Money: December 2013

    Still though, for gaming it won't make a huge difference. If you're on a budget, it's best to get a decent cheap CPU and over clock, then pump out the extra cash for the graphics card. Very few games depend on heavily on your CPU.
