So it's been 5 years since the building of my desktop. It is as follows:
i5-3550 3,2-3,5 GHz
8 GB DDR3 RAM
1150 socket motherboard
GTX geforce 760 2 GB
In another post yesterday I asked for advice about the gpu and came across the advice of being balanced when upgrading both cpu and gpu [http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/answers/id-3723235/gpu-choose-mid-high-mid-future-investment-1060-580.html] (so I'm thinking of a 1060 6gb).
Fact is I'm limited by the type of RAM I'll be buying 2nd handly (2400 MHz), so my option for a mid-high end CPU that will last another 5 years and run the nearly AAA games that are going to be released/have been recently released (Kingdom Come Deliverance [this one is so badly optimized, welp, but I want to play it so badly], Nier:Automata, AC Origins, AC Odyssey, Vampyr, Rise of the Tomb Raider, the New Tomb Raider from E3, Cyberpunk 2077 and the eventually TES VI, among others) is:
i7-7700K
Some AMD that is equivalent? I'm not versed on it and when I see and AMD cpu in game specs I can't grasp nor compare things. Is AMD worth?
Other intel core that I don't know of and that you know of that will suit?
Actually, does the cpu limit the ram type? If the 1151 socket supports 2400 but the cpu says only 2666 one, does it work?
So, asking for advice for a not too expensive CPU mid-high that will last for another 5 years
Thanks for taking your time to reply.
