I'm all in favor for i5 3570k instead of the FX, but what makes you say that? Do you mean the unlocked multiplier overclocking, because if so I believe that AMD has that too.

I ran my overclocked BD 8120 at 4.7 on Asus CHV mobo with 2x6950 CFX. (Built it without doing ANY research when BD came out) Fell for the Moar Cores gimmick. Faulting only myself.
Crossfire performance on AM3+ just sucks
I have to admit I didn't like the way it performed during gaming. BF3 was like the only game that the system really shined,
After seeing benchmarks on PD seems like a good time for an upgrade
.
But behold I was always visiting OCN just to check up on update on PD then i saw this
Starting 10/26/2012
Micro center i3570k for $169.95 and $50.00 off on any z77 mobo.
i3770k was 269.95
i2700k was 229.95

So last saturday I went to Micro Center and picked up a new i5 $169.95 and Asus Sabertooth z77 mobo for $189.95
Got home around 6 PM and finished rebuilding my rig around 2AM

I just want to say my Rig feels like a different beast. i5 at stock setting just felt more snappier.
Not bashing BD cause i had ton of fun overclocking and can't say anything about PD since I don't own one.

Now what to do with my BD 8120 and Asus CHV.......

Rendering: The AMD FX CPU's are a superb value for what you get if you can load down all 8 cores in a task like Autodesk or something like that.

Gaming: Intel. No comparison. Intel has owned the last four generations of gaming. (Ivy Bridge, Sandy Bridge, Westmere, Nehalem)

Thanks for the valuable input. I'm expecting similar results going from 1055T to the i5 3570K myself! Wouldn't even consider BD or PD after the consistently underwhelming reviews

The OP mention a i7 3820. I would choose that over ivy bridge in a heart beat. You can OC them to 5ghz fairly easily and if you get a decent enough x79 mobo, you will be able to upgrade to ivy bridge extreme CPUs in the future. Right now both the AMD 990fx and the intel 1155 are both dead platforms. X79 is still somewhat future proof. Plus You don't have the heat problems, you can fit more memory on the mobo, you have better capability for SLI or crossfire if you want it, if in the future you start doing a lot of video editing, you will have the option to upgrade to a 6 core CPU where as socket 1155 will be stuck with a 4 core CPU.

In all reality x79 is the smartest thing to do. The ONLY reason I went with ivy bridge was to see if I could break the 4.8ghz wall that the ivy bridge chips seem to have. Otherwise I would have gone with x79 all the way. thumb.gif

Thread Starter 
after a second thought, the i7 with a decent motherboard is out of the buget. i am gonna go for the i5 with a asrock z77extreme4.is there a better mobo at around the same price?

If you are not going to change your mind about overclocking, the H77 chipset will be cheaper for you, no real reason to pay for Z77.

Game Performance and Cinebench R10 - Not only Single Threaded which it mean daily use applications you will see a big difference but also and games.
Both of these CPU are great and good performance but when it's come to quality i will go with i5 3570k.Go with Intel trust.
I don't know why you should 8 cores.
Follow this website : http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/701?vs=697 and see difference thumb.gif
