I've been considering the AMD FX-8350, but I have a couple reservations:
1. I just read that AMD will no longer be producing CPUs, but will instead focus on APUs. Wouldn't that mean a loss of driver updates/support?
2. Reviews on the 8350 state that the processor gets loud and hot even when idle.
3. 8 cores is not really needed for gaming at the moment.
Also, what is classic shell? Thanks for your input!

1. They should continue to support their existing products.
2. The processor itself is as hot and loud as the cooling method.
3. Most* games only use 2 cores.
