    Is a 960 2GB to a 1060 worth the upgrade?

    I actually made this same exact upgrade about half a year ago. The difference is significant, but if you're low on money it's not worth it. In Rust on the 960 I got like 30-50fps on medium, with the 1060 I can max it out 60fps. If that difference is worth it to you, then go for it.

    What's an i5 equivalent to the i7-4790 Non-K?

    So I've been looking for an upgrade for my PC and settled on the i7-4790, however I was wondering if there is an i5 that gets the same marks for gaming, with a smaller price tag. I heard i7's pack more features than i5 but they aren't really helpful for gaming.

    Considering a upgrade to the 1070 this summer, recommendations for CPU?

    So I've planned on upgrading from a 960 to a 970 for a while, and with the announcement of the 1070's, I figured a $50 price difference is worth the performance difference. Along with upgrading the GPU, I figured the CPU could use a buff aswell. Here's a link to my current build...
