So here is the deal, i've been saving money and in a few months i will have a budget of a 1000 euros(i'm from Europe ) to buy a new computer as right now i have a prehistoric one that can't really run any games post 2010 with more then 5-10 fps. Here are the components i planned.
- CPU: Intel i5-6400 3.2GHz Quad Core Skylake.
- GPU: ASUS STRIX NVIDIA GTX 970 4GB GDDR5
- RAM: 8GB Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 3000MHz
- Motherboard: ASUS Z170-E
- Power Supply: 600w AeroCool Integrator Power Supply
- Case: AeroCool Aero-800 Windowed Midi Tower
- CPU Cooler: Thermaltake Contac 21 CPU Air Cooler
For everything else i'm sure but i simply can't really decide if i5-6400 is good enough. Some people said get 4690k, while others said get 6400, 6500 or 6600k. I watched a lot of benchmarks and it seems that the 6600k is the best of these 4, but is it really worth it to pay like 50 more for a 10-15 fps increase? Will any of these CPU's have a conflict with the motherboard and GPU i mentioned above?
Take into consideration that i plan on using this computer for at least 5-6 years, mainly for gaming and i want to run games with medium to high settings on 1920x1080 resolution.
This is my first time building a PC, so go easy on me.
So what are your thoughts, which CPU should i get?
