i5, how is this even a question
i5 4690k
>>52096986
i10 1337
Wait for their new atom processors

>>52097057
ok thanks. should i get an ssd too?
>>52097088
i7 5960x
>>52097088
an ssd will prolly be the most dramatic upgrade you will ever get
>>52097383
>>52097386
ok would an gtx 970 would be a good gpu for me?
>>52097425
no, only 3.5gb of VRAM
>>52097425
Xeon E5-2660v3
ok /g/ is this okay? should I push the trigger?
>>52097514
You don't push a trigger.
>>52097514
get a cheaper motherboard for around $150 and upgrade the cpu to an i5. Also dont get Kingston ssd its shit. Get Samsung instead.
>>52097514
also dont know why you are getting water cooler for a non overclockable cpu.
>>52097577
ok I'm sorry. I should press it.
>>52097580
ok I go for h81 and i5 4460
>>52097601
ok I'm sorry I go for 212 evo
>>52097514
this is so much bait
>>52096986
The latter is about 290+2i better
Go for the i5.
>>52097514
This is some really good bait.
>>52097425
Nah, you actually want Quad-crossfire Fury Xs.
I haven't gone fishing in a while
ok here is my updated build since pcpartpicker is down:
i5 4460
MSI H97M-E35
8 GB DDR3 1600 (1x8GB)
Transcend 128GB SSD
WD Blue 1TB
MSI GTX 950
I'm looking for play on 1080p60fps on medium to high settings mostly on MOBAs and sometimes AAA games.
>>52097641
>>52097675
>>52097704
this is not bait for real
>>52097755
bump
i7 if you have some use for hyperthreading (video editing, simulations, ???)
otherwise i5
>This may seem artificial, but in recent months quite a few games have been released that require at least a quad-core CPU to even run (without modifying the game).
Get a quad core for gaming.

i7, i5 is the worse in terms of price/performance.
In terms of price difference compared to the price difference between Pentium and i3:
Pentium to i3 (cheapest) - i5 to i7 - i3 to i5 (more expensive difference).
So jumping from Pentium to i3 you pay the premium for 2 HT threads, from i3 to i5 you lose the 2 HT thread but gain 2 physical cores and from i5 to i7 you gain 4 HT thread but Intel charge more premium for 2 physical cores as opposed to 4 HT thread therefore i5 is the worst for value.
>>52098025
The i3 has HT, so it works as well as a quad core in games. Or rather, almost as well.
It's pure dual cores like the pentiums you should avoid.
