AMD FX 8350 VS Intel Ivy Bridge K series for gaming - interesting perspective

[disolitude]

My take:

Ive gamed and benchmarked a lot of machines in the last 2 years. To be exact I did benchmarks on -
AMD Phenom II X4 940 AM2+
AMD Phenom II X4 965 AM3
Intel i7 950
Intel i5 3570k
AMD FX 8120

I used various resolutions and GPUs with all these setups and Ive never been able to make intel stand out and offer better performance than similarly priced AMD. In realistic gaming scenarios at least...when it comes to synthetic scenarios Intel tends to win most of the time.

When it comes to games, they tend to be GPU bound 90% of the time and when not GPU bound they go back and forth in terms of performance. for example, I noticed as well that Metro 2033 ran slightly better on the FX chip than the i5 3570k.

Therefore even without this video my conclusion was that buying an AMD rig for gaming today isn't a bad decision at all. Whether you're doing 3 monitor setups, single 1440p monitor or just 1080p gaming...any realistic gaming scenario...AMD high end rigs can handle them as good as Intels best.

Its just refreshing to see someone in the tech world admit it...
