I don't intend to upgrade the CPU for a while, but when I do, how does this look to you guys?

I've checked that it's compatible with the motherboard.


Considering the rest of your system, that score is actually good.
3D Mark also responds well to really tight timings on Ram and if you had a better CPU and tight memory timings with a beastly GPU overclock you should hit around 6k at the most.
Being an MSI card, you have the option to overvolt and overclock the card like no tomorrow later down the road when the need arises.

The FX 8320 is also a great CPU, easily my favored CPU in AMD's line-up currently for it's Price/Performance ratio, they overclock like champs too! Would be worth the upgrade IMHO.

Intel really do dominate the top end, though. Everyone at the top of the leaderboard is running an i7.
