All of those Console port games are made for machines with very low Performance cpus.. These games will run also on a very low Performance cpu..
i3 4130 and still happy -_-
but come on why cant i just get a g4560 with a 1050 ti?
Should I get a i5 6400 with a gtx 1050 ti ?
Excellent Vid! If you have time could you please check out out my video as well?
gtx 960 gpu card and corei 3 6100 cpu…can I play mortal kombat x smoothly?
What processor should I use when watching porn?
what should i get to replace my CPU A8-7650K @3.8 Ghz + GIGABYTE R7 360 2GB GDDR5 with something faster (where i could get at least 60 fps minimum in GTA V) and where i won’t spend more than $100-$150
10:12 i know this vid was made in april 2016, but currently the i5 3350p bottlenecks a gtx 960 in Battlefield 1
CPU Whisperer…..
HI
i was thinking to buy new i5 skylake 6500 processor but i would like to know if i should stick with my current i3 6100 and MSI GTX960 Gaming Edition 2G DDR 5 OR Buy new i5 6500 and stick with my MSI GTX960 Gaming Edition 2G DDR 5, which would be good? i got this gpu as gift 6 months ago so for now atleast i dont wanna invest on gpu but could think about that next year upgrading gpu. my current specs given below
My Current Specs
CPU – i3 6th Generation 6100 Processor (Current)
MoBo – Asus H170 pro gaming
GPU – MSI GTX960 Gaming Edition 2G DDR 5
PSU – Antec VP550P
RAM – Hyper X 8GB 2133mhz
HDD – 1TB
P.S. i play CSGO and Dota2, Ragnarok Online. Gonna play some latest new games as well.. i also gonna start rendering gaming video clips as well
please help me?
your voice is really annoying, I couldn’t focus on the performance results or even understand your voice , your accent is distracting
looks like the core i3 still puts up a good fight for 1080p gaming
what if I have bad CPU (processor) and good graphic card?
can i5 run paladins and cs go? im new in gaming
Love the vid but fck amd…
The major factor overlooked is multiplayer gaming compared across CPU’s. Modern titles like Battlefield, and COD crush processors in MP. Spending a $100 – $150 for a hyperthreaded i7 may yield you better performance in multiplayer games.
In short, I3 is better in terms of cost to performance ratio?
So in Tomb raider and Witcher, pentium and i7 6700k are almost the same ? The fuck is this shit
how about space engineers?
Getting an i7 for gaming is pretty pointless, but for video editing/content creation it really makes a difference.
>when there’s absolutely no competition on the market
so wich one is best for gaming?
Was going to ask why the GTX 1000 series or RX 400 series weren’t used… and then I noticed the date…
Could you do a video like this with the AMD Cpus an Apus.
After hearing the G4400 doesn’t run Far Cry I just upgraded to a I3 6100 in my build.
I for one am still using the 486 DX4
bro I am setting new pc.So I have bought Msi B150M MORTAR ARTIC,ram corsair Vengeance 16 gb ddr 4 2400 MhZ…….I am confused which cpu i will bought!! it will be core i5 7th gen or i3 7th gen and I use r7 240 2 gb ddr 3 gpu…..so plz suggest me processor…..which one should i get?and a low price gpu either
You tested the witcher with hair works on on an AMD GPU? Really silly and ruined your results.
missing i5 6500 skylake 3.2ghz
man this video saved me a lot of money on cpu’s
I have a gtx 1060 6gb with an i3 7th gen 3.9ghz and 8gb 2133hz ddr4 ram.
I get mad bottlenecks with battlefield and GTA v (which are the only games I’ve tested)
After seeing benchmarks of the 1060 6gb, these people seem to get way higher frames on these two games. It’s most likely the the i3 7100 but could it be the 8gb Ram?
this guy is definitely a virgin
Pentium g4520 better or i3 6098p
wew so many bottlenecking!
Can I play most AAA titles at 720p ultra settings using pentium g4400 and gtx 1060 3gb for next 2 years or so getting 40+ fps without stutters ??? . I plan to upgrade my cpu after that. Please reply…. Thanks in advance

Can you not talk like a news reporter
i3 6100 with rx 470 ?
So.. which should I get the Pentium or the i3 Plz help guys
Isnt 2 core only Pentium has stutter problems seen alot in tests, average fps may be fine but stuttering is killing impressions.
if i dont do gaming how much diffrence will i notice between pentium and i5. just in daily use( word documents, browsing, playing simple games…)
this is all a lie i have an i3 but 4 cores.
