500 gaming pc

Go to solution Solved by Aereldor,

@NinjaMonkey2017- that's a great build, and you're looking at a solid 1080p 60FPS in most games at high settings. Consider upgrading to a core i5 6600 later on when you can afford it, but other than that, you're good to go.

Spare another like 30-40$ and you can get an rx 480

Is this build for for gaming 1080 and 60fps newer games?

in your budget i would go with an "AMD X4 880K" paired with an FM2+ MB ... i think it would give you a bit better perfomance in gaming then an I3

though an I5 would be a better choise it's also a more expensive choise ... the cheapest I5 is an I5-6400 wich costs almost double from the I3 ... if you would like to stay in the same budget look at the AMD X4, if you can spend the money look at the I5

No. It gets beaten by a i3 6300:

 

 

Edit: and if you need more benchmarks

Moreover with i3 you can at least upgarde to a i5/i7 later on; there is nothing to upgrade to from the 880K without changing the motherboard.

No. It gets beaten by a i3 6300 by a margin:

 

 

though it's a small margin indeed the I3 looks a better choise ... going from what i already read about the X4 i would seriously think extra core's would give it an advantage over the I3 in some games.
for OP: as proven here the I3 isn't a bad choise ... if you can spend it though go for the I5 if not well then stick with the I3 :-)

The 880K is not a true quad core. It has two modules http://www.anandtech.com/show/10103/amd-launches-the-a107890k-and-athlon-x4-880k

Csgo overwatch bf4 or bf1 gta ect

CSGO and battlefield are more like CPU intensive games. If you can get an i5, it will give u more performance in these games.

should have 4 cores like AMD advertisesAMD%20Mar1%20Desktop%20Processor%20Updat

No exactly, each two cores share one Floating point unit.

 

The same as bulldozer:

true it only has two actual modules but they produce 2 threads per module and keeping in mind that it isn't hyperthread doesn't that count for two cores then?

No,those cores interact with each-other and share a floating point unit,there not standalone cores

@ArumanBE AMD CPU's use CMT (Clustered Multithreading) or previously named by AMD "module",there CPU's use modules,each module has 2 cores(which interact with each-other and share a floating point unit),and because there not standalone cores,the CPU is not like a 4 core CPU from Intel

ok so to simplify it, it's actualy a physical 2 core with a sort of hyperthread so it generates 4 threads out of those 2 modules. no seperate compute unit per thread

Its not that way,if it was that way,they would have 8 core CPU's with 16 threads,but they have 8 core cpus with 8 threads

 

Look at that CPU the 880k has 2 modules,in those 2 modules we have 2 cores (which are not standalone cores),a core is the physical hardware that works on the thread and has nothing to do with the module (the core has,threads do not),were not hyper-threading the CPU,were hyper-coring it
