Sorry but I totally disagree.


You can't just disagree without evidence. What evidence do you have that the 8350 is a good CPU for gaming? Here, I'll give you a list of games where the 8350 is worse than the current gen i5 (and in many cases the i3) :

MGSV : Ground Zeroes (8350 slower than i3 and i5)

Watch Dogs (8350 slower than i5)

Battlefield 4 (8350 slower than i3 and i5)

http://gamegpu.ru/action-/-fps-/-tps/battlefield-4-final-stand-test-gpu.html

Far Cry 4 (8350 slower than i3 and i5)

http://gamegpu.ru/action-/-fps-/-tps/far-cry-4-test-gpu.html

Assassin's Creed Unity (8350 slower than i3 and i5)

http://gamegpu.ru/action-/-fps-/-tps/assassin-s-creed-unity-test-gpu.html

COD Advanced Warface (8350 slower than i3 and i5)

http://gamegpu.ru/action-/-fps-/-tps/call-of-duty-advanced-warfare-test-gpu.html

Evolve (8350 slower than i3 and i5)

http://gamegpu.ru/action-/-fps-/-tps/evolve-alpha-test-gpu.html

-- you know what, I'm bored of clicking on these. You'd be hard pressed to find a handful of titles where the 8350 is even competitive with the i5, while it usually even loses to the current i3 CPU. 

Bottom line : you can't claim something without evidence. There's no reason to buy an FX/AM3 processor for gaming in the modern era. They are SEVERELY outdated and hampered by chipsets that are many gens old now.
