1600 is way too old.
I3 are way too slow.
Let us know your budget, currency and country.
I've been down this road with him before several times. For some reason he's deadset on looking at the i3-9100F despite several people telling him how awful it is.
There's no competition, and the FPS comparisons prove that. I don't see how you think the 9100F is better when it's 50% slower in some of the titles, only pulling ahead by a small margin in titles that aren't that CPU heavy. Though in more dense areas of GTA V, the 9100F slows down while the 1600 barely flinches.
UserBenchmark is also based on averages and is not 100% accurate by any means. Take everything from that site with a grain of salt.
Also:
1. The 9100F has only 4 cores and 4 threads with no hyperthreading, which is a dying standard. It's not going to be any good in 2 years, and quite frankly, it's not even good now. The 1600 is the go-to budget CPU if the 2600 is too expensive.
2. The 1600 is a 6 core 12 thread chip and will last longer. Games that benefit from 6 cores will also perform better with the 1600.
3. The only reason the 9100F pulls ahead in less CPU heavy titles is because of higher base clock and single-threaded IPC. 2nd and 3rd gen stomps the 9100F.
4. The 1600 doesn't require an expensive motherboard to overclock, while the 9100F can't be overclocked at all.
5. The one good feature of i3s is the integrated graphics. It was stupid of Intel to release a SKU without an iGPU just because it might appeal to frugal gamers that have no clue what mistake they're making.
save up for intel k or ryzen 2600+
No point stooping too low
Yes you can, you just save for a longer period of time, it's not difficult
Then you shouldn't be buying things like this if you don't have stable income.
1600 is entry level Ryzen in 2019. 2600 and 3600 are the standard/mid-range.
