Im upgrading my computer soon cause i got a new job and my PC is a fucking skrub from 2012,
My dad said get an A10 7850k but i want an i7-6700k
should i do it?
should i drink bleach and go intel?
>>54985772
if you don't game at all your dad might be right.
>>54985772
You should not drink bleach and go with intel. Self harm is not the answer to your problems!
>>54985772
You should drink bleach and go Intel. That is, unless Zen doesn't shit the bed. What time frame are you looking at?
>>54985772
the A10 is a good midrange CPU if you don't plan on using a separate GPU.
for performance you'd want the i7 but it will cost a bit more.
>>54985772
get a bleach enema. your "skrub" pc is perfect.
>>54985772
even if you just go for a 6600K skylake is nice because you get DDR4 and m2 support on most motherboards for $80
obviously AMD is cheaper and the money you save could go toward other stuff but if you're willing to wait they might have those Zen APUs eventually.

I've been gaming since 1998 :)
Im just not into the computer scene i guess
>>54985849
Time is no issue, but i don't want top of the range stuff at the moment, i'll probably wait till it goes cheaper
>>54986352
price shit out on PC parts picker, and ask stupid questions general if it's any good.
>>54985862
All performance! i was thinking of getting the 6700k/6600k with a GTX 950, not the best atm but still a solid setup
>>54986365
Way ahead of you, been messing with multiple possible builds
Here's the possible build i'm looking at
>>54986482
Drop the extra 16GB of RAM and get a big boy GPU.
>>54986495
True, but i'd rather it run smooth than have an overpowered GPU, besides higher tier cards are quite expensive at the moment
>>54985900
if you call this perfect ur a skrub
>>54986482
How did you go from an i7-6600k to an i5? And why only a 950? and why 16gb of DDR4? What the fuck are you doing?
>>54986482
drop the 950 and wait 3 weeks for a 480
>>54986625
i7-6700k to an i5-6600k*
Must have been a typo in OP.
>>54986516
>rather it run smooth than have an overpowered gpu
>implying you need 32GB of RAM for smooth operation
>implying GPU's can be "overpowered"
I'm gonna assume you're not trolling me and try to be polite about this.
RAM does not become a factor until you run out of it. 16GB is plenty for 2016 for 95% of people. I would bet money that you would never use more than 10GB without trying.
Saving the 64 euros on the RAM and then spending 200 euros would get you at a 380 which would demolish the 950. More GPU power is never a bad thing.
>>54986625
NOT EVERYBODY IS RICH LIKE YOU
>>54986646
I also didn't mention i use Cinema4D, After effects and photoshop, i think(?) that might be harder to process than games
Okay so i'll probably wait for the 480, but which GPU is cheap but solid right now? a 750ti maybe?
>>54986650
I'm not even rich, I'm just not retarded. You don't need 16gb of DDR4. At all. Go with 8, or even 8 DDR3. Drop the 950 and wait until the end of June when AMD releases the RX480 for only 200 bucks. Go with an i7. You made up for the price difference dropping the RAM and getting AMD gpu.
>>54986880
Oh, sorry, you wanted 32gb of DDR4. lmao. wew
>>54986897
at least i wouldn't have to buy more ram for 5 years
>>54986930
Anyways, enough shit talking from me. Just wait til end of June and grab that RX480. It's a great card at an unheard of price point. You won't regret it. </shill>
Overall, the build seems pretty good whether you go i5 or i7. Just don't get 32gb of DDR4 RAM. Waste of money.
>>54986972
Definitely, see if i didn't come to 4chan and get shit talked i would have wasted my money :)
