Hey! I had that motherboard back in the day. 😁 For what it's worth, I get why you compared the two graphics cards. It's interesting to see how much of an advantage features like DLSS can be. Curious to see how AMD's version compares.
Dawid, Timmy Joe has ruined your channel title for me. I always read it as "Dawid Does Butt Stuff". You should challenge him to something again to redeem yourself, because I think I watch your channel more than Timmy Joe's now. Sorry Timmy Joe.
They aged well and i wasn't ashamed for picking one back then and keeping it around for ~10 years, while laughing at people who choose the "superior" intel dual-core option in the same price class. But i wouldn't use one now even for a buget build. There are better opions avaliable today with better upgrade paths. Well IF they are available that is, but thats mor of a general problem.
Absolutely, I got a 8320, 8150, 8120 (95w), 6100 and 4100 cpus laying around. Recently made a cheap Linux box with the 6100fx, average 80w during everyday use, cheap and fun, just hunting good am3+ boards can be a challenge
I have a FX 8320e + RX 470 8gb and right now I'm playing Kena BOS 1080p 50fps medium settings. When it was new, I could play everything (except it was badly optimized) at ultra 60 fps, much better than ok at low settings.
I was glad to see you running the fx at full tilt with great supporting components. After a decade of use, my fx 8350 still serves my needs really well, including gaming. You just have to adjust settings and expectations. And pair it with a sensible GPU. My recent upgrade from a HD7970 to a GTX1660ti works well. Note that the fx processors are limited to PCIE 2, so cards that need the bandwidth of PCIE 4 are a poor pairing. Of course I could get a new CPU, motherboard, RAM, NVME drive... and I would feel the difference. But now and for the last six years money has been tight. Hence the GPU upgrade to get more life out of my old beast.
Man, my current setup is an fx8320, with the same mobo, and a rx580. Thanks timmy for reminding im to broke to upgrade lol. I will say that my system runs a hell of alot better since I switched my os to m.2 from ssd via pcie adapter.
I just threw together an older AMD build because I could. An AMD 1090t Black Edition with 16 Gigs of DDR3 1600 (Ripjaws), a R9 390 8 G Gaming, 1 500Gig SSD & a 200G SSD + a 2Tb Hard Drive. 750 Watt 80+ in it with a LED & RGB Fans in it with a decent budget case with a side window. Gave it to my Brother for Christmas (he was using an old Core 2 Quad still) so he is happy. Yeah it is technically obsolete but it is still 2-3 Xs the performance from his old Comp.
I had a 8320 with a 580 for a couple years, wasn`t that bad really... but I`m glad I upgraded lol. I also tried two R370 4GB cards in crossfire, was good for BOPs 3 zombies(over 200fps at points, but horrible low dips) and that`s about all it was good for lol.
Can't complain when you break a world record!! lol On a side note, I'm interested to see the difference a 3rd or 4th gen intel core processor does versus the 8370 paired with the 6900xt.
Rocked an i5-3470 12gb ram and a r9 280 in a spare rig till I ruined it delidding due to temps lmao. Replaced with e3-1235 on the cheap, like 5 dollars more than I paid for the i5. Main rig FX 8320 @ 4.3, 16gb 1866 and nitro 8gb 480. The fx actually beats the i5 in a lot of titles and can be overclocked/ram tweaked further. Granted im on a weak Intel chipset (h61) but the fx overall aged better than a sandy/ivy i5. 👻
an i5-2400 beats any stock FX. And i'm a big amd fan, used Athlon in 754, than ATX2 in Am2 and Phenom II in Am3, but when sandy briedge came out, boy there is no comparison.
I had my 8350 for about 6 years at this point those where the days its a server nowadays and i got me the r7 3700x the boost is just amazing had to keep the r9 390 but it still chugs along with an oc and new paste
I have the 990FXA Gaming board from MSI, with an FX3820, and it was my primary gaming PC for quite a while. I had gone through a few GPUs over the years, to get better performance, but opted to rebuild after getting an RX 470 8GB OC from Sapphire and wanted to get ready for Cyberpunk 2077. So I took the plunge last year, and rebuilt with a 2920X Threadripper and running on an Nvidia 2070 Super from EVGA. I opted to go Nvidia this time around, just due to (at the time) AMD's driver support was rough. I'm actually happy to see the 6000 series get the spotlight, with the 6800 XT getting monster performance gains with some of the liquid cooled variants.
I'm using a non overclocked fx 8350 paired with a rx 580 and 16gb of 1866. I'm still having enjoyable experience at 1080p on modern games.. Settings are usually low to medium but it gets me by.
I mixed a 6800XT with a 8600K and can see bit of the same result, IPC is low, GPU is too powerful, but well, a upgrade at some point should smoothen that out
You can try running 4 8GB sticks at 1333MHz and see if that gains you a few frames? Now try 3090 SLI on that FX, but have it inside a PC case or fully built for great effect.
I can attest to a 1070 and FX 8320 being a terribile mismatch. Both came in the first PC I bought for my son, a CyberPower pre-built. It only took 2 years before that was shown to be the case, w/the FX being the weak sister.
I had a FX 8370. And it was bottle necking my 1060 6G. I would NOT pair it with a 1070/1660Ti/2060/2070 at all. a RX 570/580 or 1060 is this things max. IMO. Good vid Timmy!
Back to Form Timmy...LOL..Your last video was not a waste at all. Now you just need to redo the tests when fidelity fx comes out....all's fair in this GPU Arena at that point...
At one point my friend and I both had the same MSI RX 480 8GB. I was running an i5 6600k at 4.5GHz and he was running an FX 6300 at 4.6GHz. I would typically get about 20% higher FPS depending on the game. We both had 16GB of RAM although mine was DDR4 3000 and he obviously had DDR3. I believe it was 1866 if I remember correctly. Where my system really pulled away was when using each others card to run the 480s in Crossfire. In Crossfire you may also want to factor in that I was running the cards at PCIe 3.0 X8 while the FX system only supports PCIe 2.0. Although, I am not sure how much difference that made with an RX 480 class card, even in Crossfire.
@Timmy Joe PC Tech: How did you overclock? Only multiplier? As you can get a lot of extra performance with FSB overclock. And matching NB and HT overclocks. I mean I get about the same cpu result in firestrike at 30fps that you do at 300Mhz more. And I am bottlenecked by my RX570 in UWHD and pretty high settings in RDR2. CPU load only hits about 70% while the GPU is pegged at 100% (still happy that it does almost 35fps, smooth enough for me)
Timmy Joe hating that FX users still get 60 average 10 years later. XD. No seriously though, my brother swapped his phenom X6 to a 8350 and as long as he gets 50-60 he doesn't care. Console gamers... Last gen console gamers.
FX performs just as good as in 2013 or maybe even a bit better... during the last few years, games finally make use of all 8 threads compared to just 4 or 2 threads in 2013
@@talvisota327 no doubt. I never had the pleasure of being an FX user as I finally got to upgrade from the phenom it originally had to a Ryzen system. He got the old system and Phenom it still used. 1090t. Served me well through middle and high school.
I still want an Anniversary of the FX series, use the new Zen Cores & "infinity fabric" up the cache sizes but keep the same architecture structure. New chipset, and youd have what the FX sereis was supposed to be, Future proof
had that motherboard and an fx 8350, can say that a cooler master hyper 212+ with dual fans can cool it, just too little thermal headroom for overclocking with the clocks i was aiming for at the time
The comparison between a feature that makes a much cheaper card perform better than a flagship card is completely valid TJ, keep doing what your doing.
Fortnite 45fps @ 1280x1024 ultra settings, FX8370 could push 200fps at that resolution? does it need to be up graded, no, it clearly runs fine... just kick the key loggers that boot ya from games just because they see certain hardware. give em the big leather boot.
I got a PC with FX-9590, Crosshair V Formula-Z MB, 16GB Corsair Dominator 2133MHz and RTX 2060 Super, Samsung 850 PRO SSD 1TB. Plays most of the games OK. Remastered Battlefield games do take some performance hit with this hardware. Some tripple A titles do take performance hit. Game Control seems to run on all graphic settings maxed out plus Ray Tracing on just fine. Have to put some games on Medium setting graphics etc.
I wanted that Sabretooth board rather badly back in 2012. I ended up with a 990X board, as opposed to a 990FX board. Couldn't justify the $160 CDN for that board... how laughable is that now?
About that "Control". Maneged to play on all low 1600x900 , with GeForce 680,and unoc'ed Xeon X3470. Was might surprised,to be able to get 30+ stable FPS.
To think I was such a loyal AMD fan back then I kept beating my head against the wall with FX processors (FX-6300 at first, then an FX-8300). I OC'd them as much as I could and they still couldn't properly support the GTX 670 I had at the time. Finally broke down and bought an i5-4690K and Z97 motherboard. I was like night and day in gaming. It actually pissed me off at myself for waiting so long to switch to Intel. Terrible chapter in AMD history.
Hey man that’s basically my setup. Except it’s an FX-8350 at 4.2 GHz with 1866DDR3 and an AMD Reference RX 6800 XT and I am getting 45 FPS with my 6800 XT graphics card. I know it’s a BIG Bottleneck but the 5900X is back ordered and I have a Dark Hero X570 Motherboard with Ballistix Max DDR4 4000MHZ Ram waiting for my 6800XT
I had an FX-6300 for about 10 years and recently upgraded to R7 3700x because why not, right? Will I ever use all dem cores..no anywho see you in 10 years when I upgrade again
Fx is still okay with 1650 or 1050 for people playing older games but newer ones are better like ryzen or older intel i still have an fx pc in my collection and its not bad
Honestly it's just down to whichever one you can get in your actual hands at this point. Both amd and nvidia have some damned good cards on the market, but both were a paper launch consumed by miners.
I'm still running an FX 8350 w/ 16GB Ram & Red Devil RX 580 and I love plays most Modern Titles just fine. But come march I will have a new system Ryzen 9 5950X, 64GB 3200Mhz Ram, RTX 2060. To be honest I have not had too many issues with my Current system. And yes the 8350/580 combo plays Cyberpunk just fine if your ok with Console like Performance. 😎
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and as a owner of FX-6300, FX-8320, and my last upgrade the FX-8370 its always fun to see what they can do today. Personally though the new AMD cards are pretty good in less your only interest is Ray Tracing and at that point neither Nvidia or AMD is truly good because of the massive performance penalty for running any form of Ray Tracing.
Hey Timmy Joe do u still got the r9 fury x, if the answer is yes could u do another extrem OC Video on? You could a little more power limit and voltage :) i like ur overclocking Videos.
Timmy was not way too hard on the 6900 XT. IT really sucks for the money. It's literally within like 5% of a 3080 in rasterization average in games without all the features and total shit ray tracing while costing way more. 3090 is stupid too, but at least its only competition is the 3080.
I own an RTX card, and DLSS is nice I guess, but most games I play don’t support it... Videos like this are king. Plugging bleeding edge cards, into dusty old relics.
You ever wonder why game developers don't put a warning on the screen like "Bruh, you really trying to run this game with that CPU?" lol Love the content TJ. Keep it up. I love that you do so many different things than other content creators out there.
Don’t apologize you were completely on the money in the last video. It’s great AMD is making cards that can hang on the high end, but they are lacking features that will be important over the next few years. If they would Have been aggressive on pricing that would be fine but apples to apples they don’t compare. IMO
Wow, 50% fps of a new Ryzen using the same gfx running modern AAA titles.. Thats more than I would have expected from such an old chip, I am quite impressed actually by that performance
honestly its the stuttering that kills it in the newer games. i bet if you locked the fps to 30 or 60 depending on the game you'd have a playable experience (maybe not in cyberpunk though)
The current FidelityFX is great, their sharpening stuff (which is technically ReShade) but its not DLSS 2.0. Hopefully the new version is better but when you cant hardly get the cards it works with anyway... Nvidias AI/ML stuff is going to be more and more important as time goes on.
I would use dlss in control and wolfenstein, but I hate it in cyberpunk. I hate motion blur and run a fast monitor, I hate the trailing artefacts dlss gives you in cyberpunk with a passion.
ok, i agree with almost all of your points, but Ampere did not beat RDNA2 to market. The first to make it to the mass Market wins and not to the scalpers wins.
idk how I feel about this series.... You should probably temper your expectations and insert a little tact in your vids -- especially when the source of said hardware isn't from a sponsor or your wallet.
Ceiling lasers are what you want to look out for, no doubt!
Still waiting for the FX-CPU revisit in 2021

Godfall already has support for fidelityfx, works on my 5700 xt
I wanted that Sabretooth board rather badly back in 2012. I ended up with a 990X board, as opposed to a 990FX board. Couldn't justify the $160 CDN for that board... how laughable is that now?
back in 2012 when you could actually build a great gaming rig for less than 1000 bucks...
should have a look at superposition gpu test.
Another great video. Keep it up!
My friend is still using the 8320 with a 580, he doesn't have stutters tho, maybe there's something work with the oc
I have the same components :)
What do you think will be the best year to upgrade in the next 5 years?

About that "Control".
Maneged to play on all low 1600x900 , with GeForce 680,and unoc'ed Xeon X3470.
Was might surprised,to be able to get 30+ stable FPS.
Dude that motherboard was beast mode back in the day. Unfortunately I could only afford the 970 chipset one at the time
Good work, keep it up.
To think I was such a loyal AMD fan back then I kept beating my head against the wall with FX processors (FX-6300 at first, then an FX-8300). I OC'd them as much as I could and they still couldn't properly support the GTX 670 I had at the time. Finally broke down and bought an i5-4690K and Z97 motherboard. I was like night and day in gaming. It actually pissed me off at myself for waiting so long to switch to Intel. Terrible chapter in AMD history.
Next 3090 to the fx test bench and compare how heavy drivers are in between amd and nvidia.
Hey man that’s basically my setup. Except it’s an FX-8350 at 4.2 GHz with 1866DDR3 and an AMD Reference RX 6800 XT and I am getting 45 FPS with my 6800 XT graphics card. I know it’s a BIG Bottleneck but the 5900X is back ordered and I have a Dark Hero X570 Motherboard with Ballistix Max DDR4 4000MHZ Ram waiting for my 6800XT
I had an FX-6300 for about 10 years and recently upgraded to R7 3700x because why not, right? Will I ever use all dem cores..no anywho see you in 10 years when I upgrade again
the backpedal is strong with this one
Fx is still okay with 1650 or 1050 for people playing older games but newer ones are better like ryzen or older intel i still have an fx pc in my collection and its not bad
Honestly it's just down to whichever one you can get in your actual hands at this point. Both amd and nvidia have some damned good cards on the market, but both were a paper launch consumed by miners.
Still more playable than PS4 or Xbox One. Tweaking some settings should make most of those games very playable.
I'm still running an FX 8350 w/ 16GB Ram & Red Devil RX 580 and I love plays most Modern Titles just fine. But come march I will have a new system Ryzen 9 5950X, 64GB 3200Mhz Ram, RTX 2060. To be honest I have not had too many issues with my Current system. And yes the 8350/580 combo plays Cyberpunk just fine if your ok with Console like Performance. 😎
Oh the good ol days when PC parts were affordable, for the average person. Good video Tim. 👍
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and as a owner of FX-6300, FX-8320, and my last upgrade the FX-8370 its always fun to see what they can do today. Personally though the new AMD cards are pretty good in less your only interest is Ray Tracing and at that point neither Nvidia or AMD is truly good because of the massive performance penalty for running any form of Ray Tracing.
Hey Timmy Joe do u still got the r9 fury x, if the answer is yes could u do another extrem OC Video on? You could a little more power limit and voltage :) i like ur overclocking Videos.
Timmy was not way too hard on the 6900 XT. IT really sucks for the money. It's literally within like 5% of a 3080 in rasterization average in games without all the features and total shit ray tracing while costing way more. 3090 is stupid too, but at least its only competition is the 3080.
I just upgraded from a Fm2+ cpu socketed motherboard
still rocking a fx 6300 at 3.9ghz with the rx 570 8gb and I get stuttering if i go above 1080p on high
The only reason I owned an FX processor was because it was the only processor that had PCI-E 3 support at the time.
I own an RTX card, and DLSS is nice I guess, but most games I play don’t support it... Videos like this are king. Plugging bleeding edge cards, into dusty old relics.
Baller on a budget!
You ever wonder why game developers don't put a warning on the screen like "Bruh, you really trying to run this game with that CPU?" lol Love the content TJ. Keep it up. I love that you do so many different things than other content creators out there.
Don’t apologize you were completely on the money in the last video. It’s great AMD is making cards that can hang on the high end, but they are lacking features that will be important over the next few years. If they would
Have been aggressive on pricing that would be fine but apples to apples they don’t compare. IMO
Send your 6900XT to Dawid and have him cut it down to a PCIe x1 connector
Wow, 50% fps of a new Ryzen using the same gfx running modern AAA titles.. Thats more than I would have expected from such an old chip, I am quite impressed actually by that performance
honestly its the stuttering that kills it in the newer games. i bet if you locked the fps to 30 or 60 depending on the game you'd have a playable experience (maybe not in cyberpunk though)
And he also made the mistake like any FX tester...no OC on the Northbridge...cmon.
The current FidelityFX is great, their sharpening stuff (which is technically ReShade) but its not DLSS 2.0. Hopefully the new version is better but when you cant hardly get the cards it works with anyway... Nvidias AI/ML stuff is going to be more and more important as time goes on.
That 6900XT is still cheaper than the RTX 3080 Ti.
and better 'cough'
Recently switched from an fx8350 to 3700x, both running a gtx 1070. It's a huge difference.
I would use dlss in control and wolfenstein, but I hate it in cyberpunk. I hate motion blur and run a fast monitor, I hate the trailing artefacts dlss gives you in cyberpunk with a passion.
If u do 4k res on cyberpunk would the fx still be at 90ish usage
I wish I had a video card to be honest I built my son a pc with my last gen Parts but unfortunately I don’t have a card to put in it
I wonder how it handles in an EGPU?
ok, i agree with almost all of your points, but Ampere did not beat RDNA2 to market. The first to make it to the mass Market wins and not to the scalpers wins.
I accept the apology and I can understand your point of view
idk how I feel about this series.... You should probably temper your expectations and insert a little tact in your vids -- especially when the source of said hardware isn't from a sponsor or your wallet.
me watching this video:
take me down to bottleneck city where the frames are bad and the lag is shitty
Yaaaa more like this pleaae
