Non essential 1150 CPU?

[Ginge620]

So i have a Gryphon Z87 board laying around now after replacing it with a Z97 sabretooth and i want to throw a CPU in it. I also have a couple of HD6970's in my old Phenom X6 system but id rather make use of the 350D (again just laying around since the larger board) rather than the 650D i also have, the 350D being smaller, more practical generally i like it more than the 650D. Also the Formula IV board wont fit in a 350D.

 

So i want a CPU thats best bang for the buck, something better than the Phenom 1100T but way cheaper than my 4770K in my main rig and good enough to not bottle neck 2 HD6970's. Weird eh? :L

 

Also id like to play around with overclocking on it. Get some decent OC like 4.5-5Ghz, i know i really depends on the luck of the draw but yeah.

If no reasonable easy solution is around then because its not an essential system atm more for mates who want to LAN or as a general second system, then ill hold out and pick up a 4690K.

 

Any suggestions

i3-4160 120 dollard. I got it and can handle any game i trow at it

i5 4690K is plenty

thought so. I was considering the G3258 for some cheap fun but realised it may cause issues in games.

i second the i3 if you really need cheap cheap. those gpus are like 2 gtx 660s in SLI, shouldnt be too taxing on even the i3. however for safety i'd up the budget and go for the lowest i5 i can find. no matter how much overclock you feed that pentium its gonna be a bad buy with all that stuttering and crazy fps spikes
