cpu help?

[stianm3]

hello i need some help refering a all around good budget cpu

 

The budget is not set as of now because she is gonna take it on downpayment

 

i was thinking about something like i7 3770k or i7 4770k but its not sold by our vendor anymore she is gonna play games on it not the hardest games but she want the ability to play the most games on max grapichs and she might want to stream them but she can take down the graphics abit like to the middle or something 

 

i was gonna recomend her to run a gtx 970 or gtx 960 for her gpu depending a little on how much the cpu will cost there is always the option to add a card to sli with out much effort 

 

If u want a challenge to help us in our native language head ower to Komplett.no and try to finde the name of a good cpu they sell

If she MIGHT want to stream but not often, an i5 would do and would be cheaper if she mainly games. Another option for CPU would be a Xeon 1231v3, which is basically an i7 at 4690k prices without the iGPU, therefore she could stream and game just fine. Also, an R9 380 tends to have the same performance as a GTX 960 whilst being cheaper in most regions although you should ask if she wants any specific nvidia features.

Do you have a name for an i5? there is all sort of numbers and letters how would the 4460 do? or should she go for skylake 6600 or 6500?

 

and i know amd would be better for gpu when ur on a budget but she does not like amd at all dont know why she cant give me a reason

If you can fit skylake in the budget, that'll be good for gaming as it has higher IPC compared to haswell. However, if it's not in budget the 4460 would be fine. Take in consideration about what I said with the 1231v3 though if she does plan to stream.

sh*t Fock the price difference between the 4460 and the 1231 v3 is about 115usd  the 1231v3 is at 326 usd and the 4460 is at 213 usd i will go after the 4460 as of now just to see what we are going from and finde out if we are gonna push a 6600 or a 1231v3 in to her budget
