Live classic

The AMD AM3+ platform can be safely called a well-deserved veteran of the processor market: released back in 2011, it was repeatedly replenished with slightly updated chip models and slowly but surely decreased in price. In the end, the eight-core processor AMD FX-8300 fell in price to a ridiculous amount of $130. For comparison, an eight-thread Intel Core i7 costs at least $350. However the performance per core of modern generations of Core i7 is much higher, and power consumption and heating are, on the contrary, lower.

Overclocking Master

Despite the relatively low nominal frequency of 3.3 GHz (auto-overclocking for two cores is 4.2 GHz), it is the FX-8300 that is the most profitable solution in the line. Why pay extra for higher frequency models if the multiplier is unlocked and manual overclocking is available? Even without increasing the supply voltage, you can raise the frequency to 3.6, and with an increase in voltage - up to 4.5-4.7 GHz(depending on the specific chip instance).

Parallelizable Tasks

Now the main target audience of the AMD FX-8300 is those who need a moderately priced computer for video editing and 3D modeling. The software for these tasks is perfectly parallelized on eight cores. However, the number of games that can benefit from eight is also gradually growing - Battlefield 4, Assassin's Creed Syndicate and Doom 2016 come to mind first.
