[PDeuce]

Is it still good ?
cpu-z Between i7 6700u and i5 440 single core thread 1420
I7 3960 X 12 MULTI CORE thread 5860
32 gb ram

passed vr ready test except for the gpu NVidia 5600ti
600 watt psu upgrade suggestions ?
If I can still game on the desktop, then whats the best gpu for this that can handle 600 watage fine.

It's still a good CPU, good bang for the buck, high single threaded performance. If you want to improve your gaming performance the GPU has to be upgraded.

EDIT: thread 404'd and posted twice! ....

It should still be decent for most games, it might lose a few fps on cpu intensive games that benefit from higher clock speeds. Ipc (per core performance) has improved a bit and mainstream i5's/i7's are running over 4ghz, some overclocked closer to 5ghz. Which gpu to pair with it depends on the games and what resolution you're playing at.

If 1080p, consider a gtx 1060 or rx 480. If looking to push even the most graphics intensive games with all the eye candy turned up, maybe a gtx 1070. It's quite a bit more expensive than the 1060 though. Not sure what your budget is.
