A friend has a £100 voucher for somewhere and wants to get a new mb and CPU so he's looking at what CPU to get for £100. I said get a Intel but there's really nothing for £100 that is decent except a old i7 920 or 950 tbh and that's what died in his old rig and he would like somit better. So what's his options and are AMD any good these days. I think I saw a fx 8xxx CPU 8 core 4ghz or somit for £125 which sounded kinda good for price but I have no idea if it is any good.

Ideas? No ocuk price links he can't buy from here due to voucher. Just state item ideas of said price range that most places do for around £100 ta.
 
Not really for new at least, they gone insane with price hikes on those lately. I had hoped they would have gone to £100 new as it have been the best CPU then but I can find any of them for that much anywhere.

BTW he has a 670 4gb card to go with whatever CPU he goes for.

He said he got a i5 4590. So can't oc it but shouldn't be too far behind my fps in a3 should it vs my 3570k at 4.5ghz but we both have 670 tho he has 4gb version. As often I used to say I had 60fps when he had 35 in arma3 and this is when he had a i7 930 or somit like that with a small oc on. Hopefully he should nearer to what fps I get now yeah?
