Is this Low Budget Pentium G4560 Built good for gaming? 2017

[<LanParty>Zeer0]

So I was planning on upgrading my current PC because its getting outdated really fast.

 

Current PC:

GPU: SAPPHIRE NITRO Radeon™ R7 360 2GB GDDR5
CPU: Intel® Core® 2 Quad Q8200 2.33GHz OC @ 2.8GHz
MOBO: DFI LANPARTY DK X48 Series T2RS (Very Old 2008 DDR2 Mobo)
RAM: 6 GB DDR2 @ 800 MHz
PSU: A-Power AK Series 680w
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit
HDD: Hitachi 164 GB

 

Now the only things I want to buy/upgrade are:

Motherboard

CPU

RAM

And GPU

 

And the ones I wish-listed are:

CPU: Pentium G4560 Dual Core 3.5GHz with HThreading (Cost in my local PC parts shop: 85.00 €)

MOBO: ASUS H110M-C (Cost in my local PC parts shop: 77.00-83.00 €) Currently on Sale for 77.00

RAM: HYPERX HX421C14FB2/8 8GB DDR4 2133MHZ (Cost 79.00 €)

And for the GPU the STRIX 1050 Ti 4GB (239.00-250.00 €) (Sale)

 

Total Cost: ~491.00 €

 

So, any warnings or recommendations before I set my goal on buying these parts?

 

p.s. I'm gonna start working this summer for money because currently I have about 100 euros..

 

Thanks!

your going to need a skylake cpu to update the bios on that board to use the cpu, or get a 200 series board

also you may need to make sure the Pentium doesn't go out of stock because they have been out of stock in the us for a bit now.

Get a b250/h270 which supports g4560 out of the box

If not ask your store if they do bios update on h110 board or check if it has latest bios to support g4560

Also I would get a new psu, that one might not be good

Is the ASUS PRIME B250M-K a good choice?

I'll make sure to ask them b4 buying, wheres the problem with my psu? The amount of watts are overkill for this build but I'm guessing because its old right?

Most likely not the wattage but the quality.

Damn, looks like you cant beat the price and the performance of this CPU.

A 500W psu should be good right? Which brand would you recommend?

Wouldnt it be better to save a bit on the ram and get the Intel core i3 7100 instead? its better.. or keep those ram and go intel core i3 6100 (the old model of 7100) for around the same price?

 

Edit: also ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1060 has the same price as the STRIX 1050 Ti  GPU.

The 6100 is similar with the G4560 when it comes to performance, but the price... aahh

 

Update: the 6100 in the shop costs 150 Euros

Don't buy a dual core for gaming. Buy a quad core Ryzen.

I'm pretty sure your being sarcastic right?

Just a waste of money. All your getting is .1ghz and a faster igpu and avx for the extra money, not worth it.

when i look at local store's here, the 6100 is around the same price, and 7100 is a tiny bit more (he can save on the ram if needed) both 6100 and 7100 perform better.

i mean they will probably be worth it for the price but they will cost more. i would say the value of the g4560 wont be beat anywhere near its price range.

marginally. if you want to pay double for that 5% go ahead but but that just doesn't seem logical to me.

0.40GHz more is really that noticeable? is that the reason why it costs so much or is it because its an i3?

are we talking about the pentium or the i3? the pentium performs within 5% of the i3 and cost about 60 dollars or euros
