    Re: Which Specs is better?

    What are you looking at doing, and what budget do you have in mind?

    What other parts are you going with (mother board, RAM, PSU)?

    With JUST these parts, and if these are the only parts you will be buying for quite a while, I would go with the FX-6300, it does better in gaming applications than the i3 3220, and, depending on exact model specs, the 7790 is a much better card than the 7750. (Comparison between the 7750 and 7770, between the 7770 and 7790 [Please note that the first comparison is '12 units, the second is '13])

    However, with the possibility of upgrading to an i5 or an i7 at some point down the road, going with the i3 and a motherboard that will support the latest generation of Intel CPUs might be the better option, even if it means sacrificing some of the performance in the short term. Even a more budget friendly i5 3570k will see impressive improvements over the AMD chipset.
