Games are mostly GPU locked these days. The G4400 has decent single core but not very good multicore. I think you'll be ok.

>>53772057
At 1080p? Not even Source games.

Some games do not start on a CPU with less than 4 threads.

An Athlon 860K would be a much better choice for newer gaymes, despite the weaker single thread performance. A lot of newer stuff won't even boot with less than four threads.

Yes, you will.
Hell, I've seen test being ran with the ancient Core2Duo CPUs + modern GPUs, and majority of the big names still work fine, thanks to being GPU-dependent.

If you can, however, get i3 instead. It's a small but still very welcome upgrade from Pentiums.

This is an outright lie. Even a heavily overclocked G3258, the fastest dual core CPU you can buy by a distance, struggles massively in anything "AAA" released in the past 18 months.

Get an i3 (like $20 more) if you're gonna suck intel's cock. Having 2 threads can cause problems in vydias or will outright refuse to run.

Big jump in price, though.

it's not an outright lie, if I've fucking seen it:

Majority of new PC buyers are going to play the biggest mainstream titles anyway, and occasionally some few years old AA / indie titles.

The G4400 is 3% faster than a Haswell i5.

why not used i5-2500k, you do know its the same shit as i7-6600k , just different name.

You can literally pull 3x 980ti in SLI without hiccups...(tried and tested)

>>53772296
This.

I'm considering buying an i5 2500k because I don't want to get a new mobo and spend 200 bucks on a CPU just because Intel are jews.
