860K vs Z97?

[SimpleG]

Okay, I hope this is the last topic.

 

I've seen some bechmarks in google images, where a non-oc'd 860K beats G3258. I will be overclocing any of the cpu's I get. But wich one shold I get? When playing NBA 2K15, my A6-6400K hits 99% CPU load. I'm playing on 1024 pixels and I can't reach the 60 FPS mark in 2K15 ON FUCKING LOW SETTINGS. Wich would be better CPU? G3258 or 860K (I'm planning on fooling around with after efects and those kinda programs). I maybe could squeeze a i3 but I'm doubting that

1 simple solution.

Get a monitor with more pixels.

 

-1920x1080..

Would not go with Z97 if you're going with the Pentium. There are H and B series boards that support overclocking for less price.

 

Therefore making the Intel solution less dollar dollar.

But wouldn't the more cores on the 860K help with 2k15?

i'd buy the g3258.

technically the 860k is better, but there is a much better upgrade path on the intel platform.

I was going to save for a year or so and buy a 5960X system (or the best that comes out)

the pentium ofc with a b85 board. later on slap an i5 there if you want

I would say go for the pentium a6 sucks

Yes, yes it would.

 

To be honest with you, I'd go with H81.

 

Something like the H81M-S2H and the i5 4460 (or 4440) would be a good combo. At this kind of price, you're looking at buying something that will actually deliver you value, this will deliver excellent value.

 a6 sucks

Yeah, no shit.

i5 4440 in Latvia costs 150 euros and up, cheapest 4460 starts at 160 euros + I need a new board. Where as 860K coasts 60 euros and I don't need a new board. + I'm trying to find a temporaly solution

Go for the G3258 and a cheap asus motherboard and overclock it
