CPU for BF1

[Daniel Brad]

Hi,

 

I am looking to upgrade from my AMD A10 7850K. I am looking for an I5/I7. Would anyone recommend a cpu that can play bf1 nicely with my GTX1060 and not cause major bottlenecks? I am looking to spend around £100-£150. Thanks

Also would an FX-8320 be any good?

Id get a i5 6500.

minimum: i3 6100

recommended: i5 6500

 

btw you have to buy new mobo too.

I think you might need to add 2 more zeros into your budget, to get a proper CPU that can play BF1.

not really...get an i5-6500 instead.

Thanks for all the input. I think I'll save my pennies for an i5

For perspective: my i5-4460 managed an easy 75-100FPS @1080p ultra in the beta. Any skylake i5 will do.

just go to an i3-6100 or i5-6500 also if you can find a good build for cheap with an i5-3570k or non k you could be fine as well. thats what i run

[Daniel Brad]

Do I need to get DDR4 RAM if I am running skylake?

Hi,

 

I am looking to upgreade my AMD A10 7850K to something more powerful. I've found an I7 3820 that is a great deal, and I wanted thoughts on whether I should get this. I would like to play BF1 with little/no bottlenecks on my GTX1060

[Oswin]

does your mobo support that  cpu? if not well you need to replace it as well

[Daniel Brad]

I am willing to get a new mobo if needs be
