CPU makes little to no difference in games. It is entirely GPU bound most of the time. If this is entirely productivity based, then fine.
All processors get hot. Intel is not always better/cooler..It's down to WHAT you want to do with the processor. The FX-83**/9*** processors are great for multitasking, and even beat i7-3770k's in many multithreaded tasks. As a matter of cooling. Intel have messed up on the IHS plenty of times and put mayonaise in place of thermal paste/TIM.
EDIT: Fluxless Solder*, not TIM.
