I just had someone recommend the AMD FX-8320 over the 8350; stating the 8350 was just an overclocked 8320 but much cheaper.
For everyday purposes that include gaming, work, etc. (no streaming, rendering etc.) it's going to come down to the i5 4670k vs. AMD 8320 vs. AMD 8350
Can't decide whether to go with a gigabyte GTX 770 vs. a non reference r9 290 GPU.
Thoughts?

This is the problem, because I am in between cycles I am not up to date on the new technology. The FX Chips have just recently come out over the last 2 years and I have not looked into them. Same with the Intel. I do not research performance and start building my system until 1-2 months from the actual purchase date, so my prices are consistent and I know what is available in my window.
As far as graphics cards, I would suggest getting highest ammount of Ram you can(2gb+), as fast as you can (ddr5), and highest bit you can (256minimum prefere higher+).
Hope some of this helps.
