Having a tough time choosing between these two brands, they have good processors but I'm not too sure which one to decide in my build.

So here's my two choices:

-Intel Core i5-4690K 3.5GHz Quad-Core 295.95 CAD$
-AMD FX-9590 4.7GHz Octa-Core ‎289,99 CAD$

What I do:

- Gaming (mostly + priority #1)
- Video editing
- 3D editing

Might be a dumb comparison, but let me know what you guys think.

9590 is terrible, needs a top of the line mobo, liquid cooling, etc.
underpowered mobo will be xploded. 220+W drawn from 9590 will fry any non top line mobos (Above 200 CAD)

4690k will be faster once overclocked anyway
plus just run a z97 mobo. they're like 140ish

"AMD can go much faster

what the hell did i just read

If you have the cash to pick up a 9590, you can purchase a vastly superior 4690k. The 9590 itself is just an oc'd AMD octo-core, and since most games now are based on single-thread performance, it's more worth it to just purchase an i5 4690k, especially given how hot and power-heavy the 9590 is.

Anyway, I got my Z97 board for 74$ as a combo from microcenter because ASRock has decent MoBos.

AMD has bad performance per core. Get intel 4690K, you really wont even need to OC it

intel if you have any inteligence
oh and,

"- 3D editing"?

This is really broad,

If you are doing sculpting(Zbrush or blender) I'd suggest getting a lot of ram and a cpu with a lot of threads.

If you are doing modelling anything really, a potato will do, maybe a potato with a lot of ram

if you are actually going to render... erm, a good GPU will do

oh and,a good >>NVIDIA<< GPU

oh and I suggest going with the AMD GPU, sure it has less performance per core but still has more cores,
and these will really come in handy for the last 2 uses.

"- Video editing
- 3D editing"

otherwise get this instead,

Intel® Core™ i7-4790T Processor,
almost the same price range

but it's like, a lot better

Great choice,
you won't regret it, MSI has really high standards from what I here but stay away from zotac GPUs because Roseart 2 bought a GPU from them and it exploded.....[citation needed though]

And Gigabyte is pretty cool too.

970 has two partitions of memory, one with 3.5 gigs and one with .5 gigs, that's what taint's trying to say

it was a big scandal but there's no real point in getting mad about it

Actually you should always buy 2.5GHZ processor it is the best and the NVIDIA graphics card is the best one for to buy so get those.

only AMD product I own is my graphics card

I can't say anything bad about it, because it works MUCH better than my old NVIDIA graphics card

again, 3.5 + .5 gig, but that doesn't make it a bad GPU, though the R9 390 outdoes it in the price range
