Changing cpu,need help

[Nacho Marco Segui]

So,i am saving for a new cpu,right now i have the i3 4160,which is a capable cpu but i am experiencing some frame drops on new games like FO4,and i think that it will get worse in the future.

My budget would be about 330-350 euros,and for this price i could get:

- i7 4790k for 323 euros

- i5 6400 with Asrock b150 pro4s and 8gb of ddr4 ram for 335 euros (I chose the asrock one because it has 4 dimm slots and it looks nicer)

- i5 6400 with MSI h110m and 8gb of ddr4 for 307 euros (The most basic mobo that i could find)

The i7 wont be overclocked too much,maybe 4,4 ghz if i ever need it

I was also considering waiting for Zen,but ive been reading that it will launch in late 2016,thats too late imo

I have the Msi h97m-e35,i know that is not made for overclocking,but i will change it in the near future.As i will be using the i7 at stock speeds,it will handle the cpu

the i7 will still be worth it
