Yes, very well, but drop down to an i5. i7's have NO EFFECT on gaming.

OKay thank you because people have been telling me to change to i7 but i think there is no difference ... but the problem is that i5 has lower GHz so i will have too overclock it but to overclock it i need a better cooler and that will cost more than that cpu

Thats complete bs. i7 is better gaming also its better for future gaming then i5.

i7 is lot more powerfull and it has 8 theards meanwhile i5 "only" has 4.

So i should keep the i7? and did you overlock your cpu? because on your steam account it says that you have 4.5ghz on a 3.4 ghz cpu ? so is that cooler good?

nobody said anything about the tt psu?

get a quality power supply
corsair, sesonic, xfx if possible

[kulla]

550W is good for me I can live with that :) and it's highly recommended so I don't think I'm going to change my power supply

You have no idea what you're talking about.

Look up any benchmarks between an i5 and i7. There's no difference.

Games don't use those "8 threads."

Depends about game. Also still better for future.
"New generation" of consoles are 8 core so i would expect new games to use more cores.

It's not better for the future.

The future is going to have much better stuff. People paid $650 for a 780. You can get a 970 for $330 which is even better.

Who cares if consoles use 8 cores. Console ports aren't going to waste development time and money on optimizing for the PC.

Good single cores are still the best for gaming.

Just buy what you need. If you NEED an i7 now then buy it. Otherwise, spend your savings for the future when you want to upgrade or build another PC.
