The Tek Syndicate did a set of gaming related benchmarks comparing the FX 8350 to Ivy Bridge K series and provided some interesting conclusions. They used fairly realistic scenarios (1080p and 1440p resolutions, maxed out game settings...) rather than usual CPU related benchmarks which showcase lower game settings and have game FPS above 100.
They found that the FX series beats Intels 3570k as well as 3777k a lot of the time in straight up gaming and always when youre streaming while gaming.
Watch the video in the link below and check out the benchmark and discuss. Please do not post childish fanboy posts like...Intel destroys AMD...etc
