Hi.
I'm beginning to build my new gaming PC. Last one I made was in 2014. So many things have changed.
Currently, my research has concluded that a good CPU for a medium build, is the Intel i5 10600k. Although I don't intend to overclock, I'm considering it, but may also consider the i5 10600 (without K)....i7 may be overkill for a medium build and may go out of my budget of €1500 (the Netherlands).
But in general, for gaming in 2020/2021, on average, which minimum CPU base speed is acceptable for demanding games such as Total War, Cities Skylines, Battlefield, Red dead redemption etc? Is 3.0 as minimum acceptable?
For your info, I'm considering an RTX 2060 Super or an RTX 2070 plus 32GB Ram @3600 MHZ (overkill! Haha I know)..... Hopefully if RTX 30 is released soon, their prices will drop!
Thank you.
