What cpu should I go for ?

[Powesedor (Pedro Pereira)]

Hi guys, I want to build a pc in this website (www.chiptec.net).

My budget is about 1000€ and I want to build a pc that can max out games at 1080p60 while recording and also be able do render "fast". Should I go for a xeon because of hyperthreading, once I have a dedicated gpu ? Should I pay a bit more and get an i7, will that fit on the budget ? Should I go for an i5 with a nice oc ? What should I do ? What should I buy? And what about a GPU?!?! 970 ? 390?

What about the rest of the build ? Can I still get an ssd ? What chipset should I buy ?

I would be very greatfull if u could spend some time building a pic for my need in this site www.chiptec.net

If your going skyline I would recommend going for the core i5 6600k

Or for a little bit more go for a 4790k

But If I buy those cpus what will I buy as a mobo, ? Can I still get an ssd? Etc

Skyline is better, Haswell is better bang for the buck. It comes down to your priorities and budget.

Honestly with a 1000€ budget, if you want to incorporate a nice, balanced GPU as well, your best bet would be a Xeon with a 390 in my opinion. Pair it with an H81/87 motherboard and a solid 8-16GB kit of 1600/1866MHz RAM and you have yourself a very balanced, 1080p/60fps setup for a solid few years that can render, stream, record and game with no issues.

If youre streaming and rendering definitely go for something with 8 threads,

the 8350 etc. would actually be a possibility here, but you are probably still better of with a e3 1231v3 and a budged motherboard.

 

mobo+ cpu is about 300-350

970/390 is about 300-350

 

That leaves enough space for an ssd and the rest

Auto correct, usually catch it but they slip through sometimes.

Just seeing two people say it irked me, idk why lol. My bad, should've figured it was something like that.

Yeah you see it a lot because that's what it corrects to. First world auto correct problems

Mhh, I cant really look at the portuguese sites but there should be some that sell a 1230v3 or a 1231v3 for a reasonable price.

If everything is expensive you could even order everything somewhere else in the eu, Mindfactory has good prices and ships for 29 euro. (1231v3 costs 250 there).

You missed the drawing for the door price, but there's still cake. So not all the news is bad.
