I want to build a pc, I dont know if I want to take g3258 (pentium) or a i5 4690k. Its a mini itx so I wont upgrade it too much. I will pair it up with maybe a 780ti in the future. I will have both about 4.4ghz - 4.8ghz. I dont want it to bottleneck it too much.
 
Solution
The i5-4690K is the much more capable chip, and the 4 cores will play modern CPU- dependent games better. You'll want to make sure that it's compatible with your mobo, though.
