Hello
I am wanting to update my primary rig. AMD FX 6300 @ 4.6ghz, gigabyte 990FXA-ud3, 8gig ddr3 1600, 2x840 evo ssds, Corsair TX750 PSU, and Sapphire 7970 (second in the mail for crossfire).
Basically I am looking at getting a 8350 for 150$ or i5\Z97 combo for 285$ at micro center. My big issue is, with having a solid board, is the 8350 the smart upgrade or would the Intel path be better. No issues with cost, more focused on which purchase would be wiser of the two. I have been looking and watching prices for awhile, I can not decide.

Titanfall

Diablo3

I also use 3 monitors, if that matters.
