Hello, this is my first post. i joined because i really liked the timely and precise answers other users were receiving, it is evident that the members of this community have solid knowledge in pc building.
Here's my dilemma:
in my country, both a new i5 7500 and a used i7 4790S cost the same amount of money: 239$
parting from there, i want to build a budget PC that can maintain more than 60 fps at all times in battlefield 1 1080p (mesh: ultra, post: max, AA: TAA. everything else: High), and offer me the greater performance out of the box. i will never overclock this build.
so i am cheaping out on most of the other parts to reduce the cost as much as possible:
*B250/B85/H87 mobo - depending on which cpu i decide to buy
*1x8GB DDR3/DDR4 (another 8GB stick would be added a month later) - depending on which mobo i decide to buy
*EVGA 500W 80+ white
*HDD: already got a 500GB 7200rpm hdd
*case: already got a mid tower case
*GPU: either the rx470 or the 1060 3GB (same price in my country)
if i choose the haswell route, the build will cost less now but will make me concearn more about future upgrades. ddr3 can only go as high in frequency.
if i choose to go with kaby lake, the build will cost more, but i fell like it would be a more up-to-date build, though and i am afraid that because the lack of HT on the i5, upcomming open world games and big scale online multiplayer games wont perform as good.
also i plan on using emulators, photoshop, autocad/inventor, some light video editing on adobe premier, music file transcoding, browsing the web with 10-15 tabs open, using torrent file sharing, and ms office.
which build should i go with?
4790S + B85/H87 + DDR3 1600mhz
or
7500 + B250 + DDR4 2400 mhz
i an not interested in ryzen
