I have a big ol' list of questions regard CPUs that have gone unanswered for far too long.
1) How many CPU intensive games are out there right now?
2) How many CPU intensive games have been released within the past five years?
3) Considering this build, would it be better for me to upgrade from an i3 to an i5 quad core?
4) If an i5 is a better choice for me, how much of a performance upgrade will I see in-game?
5) Is it better to go for an i3 for singleplayer and i5 for multiplayer?
6) Do I need more cores with games that are heavily modded such as Skyrim?
7) How many years do you think a quad core will stop becoming viable for gaming?
8) How does CPU OC benefit gaming as well as GPU OC?
Thanks! (Hopefully the questions aren't to vague. I'll try to edit to make it more clear if needed.)
EDIT: Here is the crappy build http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3Osv3
