I'm going to play 1080p AAA games at my 60hz (hopefully with oc 75hz). How will I do? How to improve? I live in Israel where pc parts pricing is very different. Should I spend 180$ more and buy an i5 (total cost: 2400 ILS)?

Seems pretty good.

Great video card, with a very nicely matched CPU.

 

It will be great.

If you want to play AAA titles at 1080p 60-75 fps, I would say that you should get an RX 480 4GB or, if it is substantially cheaper, a GTX 1060 3GB.  Most AAA games rely much more heavily on your graphics card than your CPU.  For example, DOOM pretty much doesn't care what CPU you are using, but a better graphics card can mean much better performance. :) 

 

The Pentium G4560 is a beast of a gaming processor, considering how cheap it is.  I would say that an i5 upgrade isn't worth it...yet...for 1080p gaming.

 

TL;DR is that you should upgrade your GPU instead of your CPU. :)

Here is my recommended computer build.

 

I used Amazon Deutschland and used the Euro to closely match up your intended budget.

I used the RX 460 4 GB graphics card.

The G4560 comes with a CPU cooler, and you can't overclock it.  No Hyper TX3 is needed.

 

Outside of the PSU (maybe), I don't see how this is a better build for him.

It's an OEM processor, therefore, no CPU cooler is included.

 

Re-read the specs.

Should I get the rx 480 4gb? It's a 25$ difference

Can you ask if your store does BIOS update for you?

Because G4560 won't work with H110 w/o one

Also what CX 430 is it? There is a little better CX 430V3

I asked them. It comes with the latest BIOS updates
