What sort of FPS difference are we looking at, hes on a really tight budget

It will only be about a 90 pound increase in price, and the performance buff will be significant.

its not really the FPS difference its just dual cores arnt cutting it anymore and some games dont even start with dual cores. Its only get worse as new games come out, maybe you could lend him the money and he can pay you back for the difference?

That is correct. 

 

My bad, not used to prices in other countries, forgot that the pound is much more than the dollar.

anything really, Hes been saving for a while, and i doubt he will be willing to save much longer, so unless its going to make a big change, hes going to buy it now

like i said, anyway you can loan him 40 pounds? Itll be so much better in the future.

Well, it is only 50 pounds, an the 4460 wont bottleneck a 980ti. 

 

As for atatistics, i am not in a position to provide them right now, but i promise you that the performance boost is worth 50 pounds.

So anyway let me explain. Farcry 4 used to not even LAUNCH on dual cores because the game really needed the 4 cores after a while they eventually patched it, but creators have stopped considering dual cores and more focusing on multi cores. Thats why the 860k is considered better than the pentium g3258
