    So, you are suggesting to spend twice the price (maybe more) for 10 extra fps?

    Hi there

    Personally I would go with X99 as next,Z97 is not bad,but still in my view is not worth it,in gaming hard to say,I'm not convinced

    Get i7-5820k or 5930k as CPU and enjoy..

    Yes you will need to go with DDR4 RAM but they're now cheaper than DDR3 RAM

    Hope this helps

    Thanks,Jura

    Are you seriously planning to spam this thread with suggestions to get an intel extreme for 60 fps gaming? If yes, then sorry but as I said, I'm not interested in those cpus.

    Dont get agressive, hes just trying to help. But yeah, there is no reason for 5930k to play games, any i5 will do just fine for half the price.

    Yeah, I think this is the last time I check this thread, because it's starting to get out of hand.

    Who is trying to spam yours thread mate?

    I've only suggested as next CPU i7-5820k or 5930k,those CPU are nowhere near Intel Extreme,Intel Extreme is 5960X or which ends with X

    Thanks,Jura

    Spartan-Relax dude They are just offering you (opinions) they are just that opinions nothing more.I think you would be fine with a i5 skylake 6600k was it? Even the 4690k is more then enough,Hell I have even seen Pentium G3258 push 2 gpus more then a 8-core Amd.Any of those will be a fine choice.

    In the end its your money,You have to decide what works best for your budget,I bought my 4790k cause I wanted something a little more high-end then the damm fx 6300 I was running for a year or so.I am very happy with it btw.Good luck in your quest let us know what you settle on?
