hey guys ive currently got a phenom 965 ocd to 3.8
i want to upgrade my cpu and give my brother my 965 as he is still using a dual core.
the price for the 8320 is R2000 and the price for the 8350 is R3000.
the 8320 runs @3.5 and the 8350 @4.0 out of the box. i usually do OC but i dont think i will have time to run prime95 like i used to bec of the new job etc. i might OC in the future.

i just game basically.

my current specs

asus sabretooth 990fx r2.0
phenom 965 @ 3.8
8gb ram
msi 7950 twin frozr 3
96gb kingston ssd
corsair 750 power supply

basically will it be worth getting a 8320 over my current 965 or should i pay the extra R1000 for the 8350?

just buy 8320 and oc to 4.2ghz , they easily also do 4.5ghz.

Will handle any game then .
