So I am finally upgrading my rig and I am going to go for the Intel route this time.I am in a dilemma however.I could go with the newer skylake i3 6100 or the older i5 4460.Both will come on almost the same price as the skylake motherboards are expensive at the time.My other specs will be:
GPU : Nvidia GtX 750 ti
Hdd:Wd caviar 1tb
Ram: either hyperx ddr3 1886mhz 8 gb single dimm or corsair vengeance ddr4 8gb 2133 mhz single dimm
Mobo:Asrock h81m vg4 for the i5 build or msi h110m pro vd for the skylake build.
Another question is whether will my pay support both builds .The psu is a
BeQuiet system power 7 400w.
I am considering an Xfx ts 550w aswell but as my budget is right is rather use the BeQuiet .Will it be able to support my build?
 
Solution
The 4460 will beat out the skylake by allot. The two cores on the 6100 is just too little for any modern game and will bottleneck. The 2% gain in single thread doesn't reflect in any real world situations.

Your build isn't power hungry, anything over 350w would be enough.
