Intel core i5 6500 any good?

Ericisspicy · Oct 26, 2016

Is this a good cpu? I'm putting it with a MSI z170a m7. I'm only a casual gamer that's why it's nothing fancy.

It is a great cpu. Dont get that motherboard. Get an h170, because you can't overclock a 6500 without extreme effort. You just missed a frys sale for an i5 6400 for 130 sadly

Well I don't plan on overclocking

msi gaming m7 with a 6500? youre way overpaying

Ericisspicy · Oct 26, 2016

What's wrong with them

superninja12 · Oct 26, 2016

youre paying too much for a motherboard for features u never need.

look for the msi h170 gaming m3, i own that one too.
perfect board for your needs.

You could get a motherboard half the price of the z170 M7 and invest it in a better CPU/GPU etc. Even one with M2 support http://pcpartpicker.com/product/CCwqqs/asus-b150m-am2-micro-atx-lga1151-motherboard-b150m-am2
