Is it better than FX 4500 PA/PV?

I have both, and the 5800 is better for what I do. It has more memory. Higher level language. More functionality overall.

I used to have 4500P and I really loved its programming mode. I would rather buy it.

If your motherboard can support the FX series CPUs then they might be worthlooking into. Myself I'm very happy with the Phenom II X4 965.This thing is more than fast enough for my needs even at thestock 3.4Ghz speed. I had it overclocked to 4.0Ghz for awhileand had no issues with overheating or stability running WINXP PRObut some games, GTA IV for example would cause BSODs so I justset it back to stock speed and it works great.

Will depend by other resources you have in your computer like coolers.In my computer I use a XFX 1050W , but I have a 300W CPU cooler. I recomend at last 550W REAL if you dont have any cooler with high demand. But if you will buy a new power supply I recomend go with at last 850W Real. I like the XFX full modular. They have awesome power supplies

Depending on the processor he's using, you should be fine with a 500W PS. If you see him upgrading further down the road, you may want to consider higher. It will save you some money overall. I run this card and an i7 processor on a 510W PS and it is perfect. north of that wattage and you open it up for upgrading down the road, which is definitely a good thing. In conclusion, 500W+ PS and you will be fine for this card. :)

The heat sink/fan caused me some trouble. I'd reckon you consider the Sapphire Radeon 7750 LPF as it is a proper Low profile card ad noticeably more powerful.

Hi incurablegeek.I found this information that can help you solve your doubt is a little more efficient in the 8320 tests performed on this page ...http://cpuboss.com/cpus/AMD-Phenom-II-X6-Black-1090T-vs-AMD-FX-8320Thanks..

I had the phenom x2 965 and I felt a sensitive diference, has been more than enough for most the duties I use. But if you have compatibility for the next socket in your board and can afford it, buy the latest one, eventough I hadn´t need something more recent or bigger than the thuban.

look at this comparison vs small I3, not as good for high intensity games, but I have used for many business applications and is great. http://www.cpu-world.com/Compare/288/Intel_Core_i3_i3-3220_vs_Intel_Pentium_Dual-Core_G2030.html

The 290 is a powerhouse and is bout 50-60% faster than the 760 FTW, costs $125 more, runs significantly hotter, and consumes almost double the power. But is 50-60% faster.If you already have the 760 FTW, I'd think carefully about whether the upgrade is worth it or not.Source: I own rigs with both 760s (non-FTW) and 290s.

The biggest improvement is in the TIM (thermal interface material) which will improve temp's, resulting in a better overclock. Many enthusiast replaced the TIM on the 4670K's and lowered their temps by 10-20*C. I haven't seen any benchmarks published but I would be surprised if there's more than 5% improvement on any of the test.Also, there is an improvement on the integrated graphics.

The FX processors require a different socket than the Phenom so a new mobo will be required. It also has the video built on to the chip, ok but not the best. Check out Tomshardware.com.

Hello, WannaServer here.... The 3rd Generation 2950 (2950 III) pulls around 230W at idle The system is actually one of the louder ones. Unless you have it in a basement, seldom used room, or datacenter you are going to hear it! If you request it in the order, WannaServer will include the bezel. Thanks!

Yes, the boost and base clock is superior. Cores are the same; so you would have, really, a little advantage. It has a cooling fan that help keep the temp a tad bit down. If you are getting this for video games, you will great results for last gen titles, but not so much for current games. Games like Skyrim or Battlfeild 3 or CODBO 2 will get great results, hence the reason I bought this. Battlefield 4 doesn't run as smooth as people would like. The GPU RAM (along with the other specs) makes it kinda tough running any settings on high or above. This disappointed me. My plans are to get another GTX 660 and SLI. This is not the best choice if you want to run current gen games on max settings. I would recommend buying two of these, or a GTX 770. If price is a problem, then the GTX 760 is basically a 660 for current gen, by that I mean it runs today's titles with acceptable performance. I hope this helps.

I have a 850 watt power sdcupply for my rig, fcan't think of the brand nrame at the moment. Seems to be enough for what I have but it depends on what type of video card, hdd, cpu. I run a FX 8350 amd cpu, and a Radeon R9 270, seems to do ok.

Do you have a pci express x16 2.0, 2.1, or 3.0 and a powersuply of more then 400w with either a 6 pin connector or 2 molex connectors? If so, then yes. ------------------ Under further reaserch of the bored you(hopfully) don't yet have I have to say is EXTREAM OVER KILL. that board runs 200 ish here on amazon and you only need all the stuff it has if your trying to run a server while edditing videos/ rendering them. this is a mid-range card an the motherboard you speak of is the low of the high. sooo you would be better of with the gigabyte 270x or up or a duel set up with this card. If you don't know about what I speak (since you don't appear to know much about compatibility ) I would suggest a cheaper first rig, and also something newer. getting a good bored is important but aim for a newer one. reaserch research a d research. and more research. YouTube helps a lot. I hope this impute was helpful, good luck with the build!

From Gigabyte's website, the FX-9590 is supported on Revision 4.0. Have fun building your beast!
