I am looking to build a pc and i was wondering what cpu you guys would recommend for high performance in gaming, as long as its below $200, the cheaper the better obviously, without sacrificing performance

The i5 is the better all rounder, with the FX series pulling away only in heavy tasks like encryption which can use all cores.
