Short story:
Is the FX-8350 a worthy upgrade from the Phenom II X4 840?
Don't suggest Intel, I am just talking within AM3+ mobo limits.
Long story:
My friend's motherboard(AM3) died and the computer shop offered him a new one(AM3+).
He's a DJ in Argentina and I want to ship him an FX-8350, but before I can do that I want to know how it performs vs the Phenom II X4 840. (Yes, I know it's actually an Athlon.)
He's also a gamer, but most of the time, he usually produces music and videos.
How well does it improve in Photoshop, Premiere, Vegas, over Audition versus the Phenom?
The import tariff is high in Argentina, so I can't suggest a new MOBO, so don't come telling me about anything regarding APUs or Intel. (FX-8350 can go around $300 - $400 in their currency, better I ship it and it doesn't come close to that price)
