Heh, BD isn't as bad as people make it out to be. I built a system for my cousin with the FX 6200. It wasn't bad at all compared to my 2600k.

Looks like your going to have a great system there. Don't let people discourage you on your choice. We all have opinions. You will see that you will have a pretty nice rig there when your done.

Nice insults!

An i5 3570k is only $60 more. And it's a far more superior CPU. (Or even an i5 2500K, only $50 more).
An equivalent board in Z77 (Asus P8Z77-V Pro) is only $20 more from a 990X Sabertooth.

So overall, $80 more for a system that's 100x better?
Is saving $80 really worth the inferior performance?

Please, unless you have something educated to say... just don't say anything at all.

An AMD Phenom X4 965 is a better CPU than an 8-Core Bulldozer and it costs less.
There is literally no justification in buying ANY AMD CPU's, unless you're building it for less than $800.

Or for an HTPC. Even then... Intel builds vs. an equivalent AMD build (Intel being $20 to $50 more); Intel always wins.

let ppl buy what the wan´t ........
and by your educated answer it´s seems like you read em down from some sort of intel strategy paper..........
and a 965 or 955(i own in my second rig) is from my oppinion not faster .......

@op sorry for that but i hate ppl trying to change ppls mind by given such a useless post

He never said that this was a gaming rig. If he is doing anything that uses all 8 threads, it's a perfectly good processor. There is nothing wrong with an FX processor. It's not like it can't play games, and just because it is a little slower at single threaded tasks does not mean it is a bad CPU. All in all, I don't think that the he will be disappointed with it. I'm willing to bet that the FX chip is better at virtualization than a lot of skt1155 chips while still letting you overclock. (I was split between FX and the 3820 for that reason, because skt1155 wouldn't offer VT-d on a K edition chip, where FX and SB-E did.)

So don't bash people for preference. I'm sure he has his reasons. It's not like he is buying a Pentium or Sempron.

Omg

right after posting my last reply i got an complete crash with a really freaky sound. like

GRRRRRRRRRRRBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR RRRRRBRRRRRRR___________BRRRRR

so ive rebooted my PC and BAM Core temp said

Core 0
192°C
Core 1
32°C
Core 2
32°C
Core 3
32°C
Core 4
32°C
Core 5
32°C
Core 6
32°C
Core 7
32°C

30Minutes l8r is only Core 4 on 192°C
and again 30Minutes l8r is Core 2 on 255°C
so i dont really iderstand why only 1 Core is so overheaten...... and other Toolz like The ASUS AI Suite or the ASUS Thermal Radar always said CPU:15-40°C so should i trust on the ThermalRadar or should i trust CoreTemp?

Is the system stable after the crash?

One core getting hot like that is very odd.

I would check the temps using other tools like RealTemp or SpeedFan.
