At the time when i put this setup together i had little to no money to go on, so it felt natural to take amd route on mobo and cpu, but now that i am about to upgrade intel cpu's seems like better choise, altough it would mean that i would have to get new mobo and maybe even new ram depending on cpu/mobo i would choose. Good thing is regardless what graphic card i end up choosing, i can stick it in both system regardless if it ends up being intel or amd. My aim in this topic was more towards the experiences other may have had with fx 6300 when playing skyrim, for example i played around with different settings, and with few mods regardless of options i got same average fps with 1080p. Thanks everyone for their replies, feel free to comment on this tough, if you have any insides to this topic, it would be interesting to hear if anybody has any bottleneck/problems with fx 6300 regarding skyrim.
