Need Your Advice

Hello

I want to buid an inexpensive pc for about 250 dollars.

I bought an rx 580 gb and pairing it with a xeon x5670 non oc because I will be putting it in a dell t3500 prebuilt.

I am just curious if its a good combo or not.If anyone has the same system specs or with a gtx 1060 it will be nice if u could tell me the gaming performance.

I know the cpu will be a bottleneck but to what extent im not sure.I choose the xeon over an i5 2500,3470 and 3570 because i think some of the modern games must be utilizing more than 4 cores.Also the platform has ddr3 triple channel support.My main focus will be on PUBG pc and mobile.

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

Have you considered a Xeon X5690 instead?

You could even get an x5687 for 44$ USD and it'd beat out an x5670

I just want to play PUBG but at the same time i dont want my rx 580 to under perform due to the cpu.

should work fine, CPU might hold you back a bit but if the motherboard is on the X58 chipset you can overclock the CPU
