oh well yes ... indeed a 4670K would be a upg... wait a sidegrade4670k and a decent z87/z97 board would be good.
47° idle seems a bit ... well the Bulldozer was a bit hotter than the Vishera yet AMD CPU always are a bit hotterAbout 65 and 47 idle

Try remounting the cooler, clean off old paste and reapply with a small dot of thermal paste in the center of the CPU and see if it gets better. The idle is too hot.About 65 and 47 idle

My opinion is no you should not based on what your saying you do. If you really want to upgrade, get an unlocked i5 and save the extra 100+ bucks.Okay, so should I get the I7?

and save another extra 50 to 75 with a 8350 ,which you would not see a "huge" difference, as he could keep his motherboard... (as a i5 would not really be a upgrade nor is the 8350)My opinion is no you should not based on what your saying you do. If you really want to upgrade, get an unlocked i5 and save the extra 100+ bucks.

technically ...Not a lot, the Piledriver is only a small refinement. 10-15% maximum, average maybe 5% increase. You may even get less performance on the odd application.
It's really not worth the upgrade IMO.

Benchmark Scores | bench...mark? i do leave mark on bench sometime, to remember which one is the most comfortable. :o |
thinking of going to an fx 8350? ... some 3dmark benchmarks with the fx8350, i3-4330, g3420 (all using a gtx680 1240/6600)
7177 - http://www.3dmark.com/fs/2256218 , fx8350 4g4 2.6 ht,hb, 2133ddr 9,11,10,30
4004 - http://www.3dmark.com/fs/2299767 , g3420, 1600ddr 8,8,8,24,1t tRFC 107
6500 - http://www.3dmark.com/fs/2240092 ,i3-4330, 1600ddr 8,8,8,24,1t tRFC 107
the difference in the scores is in the CPU, the graphics tests have the same FPS on gt1 40.5, and on gt2 33.09
which means that the graphics card, does not matter but the cpu does... in the case of a gtx680 1241/6600.
for me on a i3-4330 or a fx8350, they are both fast enough on crysis, crysis3, tombraider... my preference is the i3-4330, but the fx-8350 at fx8350 4g4 2.6 ht,hb is ok, except it is not as smooth.
but in three years you might be better off with the fx8350 because all the games will be ported from the xbox1/ps4 which has 8 cores... (then again intel has more CPU's out there so it is MOOT point.)
while i say that the i3-4330 feels smoother than a fx-8350, the i3 is 2core 4 thread CPU, and a fx8350 is 8 cores...
so the bragging rights go to a fx-8350...
