i5 6500 vs fx 6300

[djdrews]

What will bottleneck a 900 series card more a fx 6300 or a i5 6500 it's an argument between me and a friend and I'm telling him an i5 6500 will not bottleneck a 900 series but he says it will I think  he doesn't understand the concept of IPC. He says u need an i7 to run a 900 series card without a bottleneck.

I5 annihilates

the fx 6300 gets blown out of the galaxy by the i5 6500. /thread

Your friend is dreadfully misinformed about how these things work.

i5 6500 will be fine with 980ti. 6300 will not be fine.

technically he is right, he didnt state what generation of i7

 

first gen i5 are pretty much gonna bottleneck a 970 or 980, while an i7 will probably bottleneck it less `-`

 

back to topic

the i5 6500 will wipe the floor with the fx6300

single or multi-threaded

Thanks for the replies

He didn't state what gen I think he

meant any generation 

He runs a i7 2600k at stock with a 780

An i3 6100 is better than a 6300 for games, so an i5 6500 will shit all over it.

 

It depends what youd call a cpu bottleneck though, since that depends alot on the game, framerate , resolution etc.

If you run 2 titan x and play in 1080p sure a extreme i7 5960x @5ghz will get more fps than a stock skylake i5 in most games.

An i5 will pretty much puh every game to 60fps though given enough gpu power.
