Hello,
I'm currently running a pretty old gaming setup by today standards, running:
ASUS GTX 760 2GB Mini
Intel Core I5 4570 @ 3.20Ghz
MSI H87-G43 Motherboard
8 GB of RAM
I was planning to replace my heavily used 760 as its old and tired by now. Was planing to get 1070 but recently I heard people telling me that I don't need anything more than 1060 for 1080p gaming and other people telling me I should go for 1070Ti. So I'm sort of in the middle of what should I get.
The second part is the fact I was thinking about upgrading my cpu. I can feel my I5 not performing the best anymore so I'm looking for an upgrade. However, I stopped fallowing all the latest CPU news especially after the waves of new Intel cpu's coming out, it was too much for me. So the question is, do I stick with the socket and upgrade to an I7, do I got for skylake or something else ? I was looking at I5 - 6600K but not sure if its the right option.
Best performance for the money is what counts for me. I do 1080p gaming and have a 2 monitor setup, with the second monitor being used just for browsing etc. I also do web development/programming but that is not very heavy. I also live in Ireland so most of my stuff would probably be from UK.
I would appreciate all the help I could get.
