CPU question

[Fahrenheit01]

So i have a 6600k and a 1060 6GB, and i was wondering for how long will that be good for AAA games on high or ultra settings on 1080p 60fps?

should be good for at least 3-4 years depending on how game engines advance, probably longer assuming nothing dies

There is no way to say how fast games will evolve, but that should last you a few years (2 or 3) if games progress the way they have been progressing the last 3 or 4 years.

So it should last and do good until 2019? I'm planning on getting a Navi GPU from AMD when they launch

For 60fps? not even this year lol

 

Some games already struggle to achieve 60fps, especially with an i5, i7 and multi-core is going to be a prominent thing, and an i5 simply does not cut it anymore when considering the "optimization" of games these days.

Is it gonna be good in ME Andromeda with 4.4GHz OC and a Gigabyte G1 Gaming 1060 6GB?

That's the recommended specs for the game, so should run at high at least

Would last longer if you went with the 6700 [locked even] which would cost you the same since the h/b motherboard and stock cooler would be cheaper... anyways you are good until 2019 if you play on 1080p
