Hello, I am planing on building a medium/low budget gaming pc but I'm not really sure about the processor. I don't wanna spend to much money. Would this i5-7500 be enough? https://www.webhallen.com/se-sv/datorkomponenter/258270-intel_core_i5-7500-4_tradar-34ghz-6mb-socket_1151


or should I spend another 50$ and get the i5-6600k?

Thanks to everyone for responding:)

i5 7500 good enough. If you go for 6600k you need a good cpu cooler and overclockable motherboard; thus, you need more money.
g4560 also a strong budget cpu.

Desktop specs:

AMD Ryzen 5 5600 Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE ARGB Gigabyte B550M DS3H mATX

Asrock Challenger Pro OC Radeon RX 6700 XT Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (8Gx2) 3600MHz CL18 Kingston NV2 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD

Wait a week or two and decide once Intel inevitably lowers their prices because of Ryzen.

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

Well that's what I would normally say, but then the Intel fanboys would just jump down my throat for "evangelizing"
