Hello,
I am struggling with a doubt, I have a Phenon II X6 1090T at stock clockspeed, and I've been thinking on a temporary upgrade to a 8320E while waiting for AMD Zen...
In a typical scenario I would never bother to do any upgrade but I have a sort of gaming setup so I'm rather concerned about a possible bottleneck in my system.
PHENOM II X6 1090T @ 3.20GHz (stock)
Nvidia Geforce GTX970
16GB DDR3 RAM
Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3 R5
I have a pretty decent performance with demanding games (I play them in 1080p) like GTA V, The Witcher 3 etc, but I would like to know if i'm going to have some kind of performance boost.
I know the FX series have much more memory bandwidth (around 40% perhaps?) than the Phenon peers, but I also know about Phenom's superior single thread performance, but on the multi threaded side, things are a more mixed bag. Since games (my main use for this system) is my main goal, I would like to have some feedback.
Thanks a lot in advance!
