It doesn't have a name really, but i decided to name it Cilicone now.

I'm planning to put everything in July (26 July, my birthday) of this year.

 

Stuff i'm gonna do on here:

1) Play Cities: Skylines

2) Web browsing

3) Play some other games maybe

City Skylines loves it´s cores and threads, not to mention that I think it´s one of the games that doesn´t run on a dual core. Might be worth looking into stepping it up to an I3.

1. The I3 is still a dual-core.

2: This god damn CPU can run the game at Medium to High, it supports dual-core of course, and my Core 2 Duo E8500 can run it even though my GPU is so crappy the game runs at 1 fps in my current computer at everything low.

A dual core with hyper threading. Games see it as quad core.

The i3 acts as a quad core, hyperthreading is really useful

But it only has 2 physical cores, and beacuse of the hyperthreading some games may try to use more than 2 cores and there goes the i3.

But it has 4 threads. Games use these 4 threads as if its a quadcore.

And in some games, that pentium gets half the frame rate of an i3(bit of an exaggeration). Look at ryze. Some games just refuse to start on a pentium.

i3 6100 is only €20 more expensive and I believe much better coz of hyper-threading.

And incompatible

even though the i3 4150 is compatible but i CAN'T AFFORD IT

The only reason i'm getting a Pentium is beacuse i have only 103.53€ to spend and the Pentium G series are the only compatible processors.

I didnt realize he already bought MBO and RAM...

I'm not gonna wait 1 month to have money to buy that freaking processor, not to mention i'm gonna need to have all of the parts in July of this year. The Pentium will save me 1 month for the video card, case, PSU, whatever.

Said pentium will end up bottlenecking/preventing some games from launching.

Seriously? I can get a 750 Ti and it won't bottleneck, and the games i'm playing other than Cities: Skylines may just be SimCity 5 or Minecraft, not intensive at all.

So you already bought MBO/RAM and you decided to definitely go with that Pentium CPU? And what exacty is the point of this topic?

That CPU will bottleneck everything and you can get i3 for extra €16. If you really cant find €16 I would suggest you to go second hand.

Second-hand? No, there's no freaking compatible CPU's on the second-hand website that is local, not to mention they even there have Pentium 4's. And i'm not going get a i3, beacuse:

1: It will take a month

2: The Pentium can run the games i want already

3: Not to mention i have to finish my build in July. Yea, Pentium is the best.

4: And not to mention i have a low income ( 30€ per month average )
