No...

And 390 can consider but slightly more expensive than what $face bro suggested

Sent from microwave oven using GAGT

Way more power hungry and lesser performance for both CPU and GPU..... R9-390 is slightly faster...

Mine is still way better in performance and quality.

Core i7 is nowhere much faster than Core i5 for games and general usage.

Tell them that you want to buy full PC and insist that you only want those models and reject whatever other models they offer to you. They will be able to get those from other shops for you.
