Posted January 1, 2018 I support your decision, I had GTX 760 before and did exactly what u are doing, LoL or any other game for that matter on one screen and Twitch/YT/Movie on the other at all times. With my i7 it was great. If u can get i7 then I say go for it. That CPU will serve you well for years to come.

Posted January 1, 2018 Author I just did a test on a normal league of legends game with the task manager performance tab open my GPU is at 40-60% avg and about 100% max and my cpu is about 30-50% avg and 85-95% max never went 100%. so i assume my cpu is still going strong and a my video card is the one that bottlenecks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted January 1, 2018 Does anyone know what would be better, i5-3570k or i7-2600 non k? Assuming both cost the same, and I already got z77 mobo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
