frankster209 · Aug 11, 2015

Hi there,im building my first pc and im wondering if this cpu is gonna be able to handle my games on ultra 1080p 60fps with a nvidia gtx970 gpu and 8gb ram? I will be playing the newest call of duty games, battlefeild, counterstrike go, and gta 5. im also wondering if there are good motherboards for this processor

Yes it is the PERFECT cpu for that. I've recommended that very cpu on this site more times than any other cpu.

Yep, great CPU, might map out your build, then if any extra in the budget can kick it up a step or two

Tradesman1 :

my max budget will be about 1100$ will my build benefit from 16gb ram for ultra 1080p 60fps gaming?

No I don't think I would bother with 16GB RAM but that's up to you.

I'd go 16GB, there are already games calling for and using 8GB, a new version of Hitman is coming that calls for 12GB, it's just the way things are, games are utilizing DRAM more and more
