I need to decide which cpu to buy.

Hi guys.

I need help which cpu to buy.Im not on a good budget.Just planning to buy cpu and another part this month.Either a mobo or ram or a good psu.this month ill have like 12k pesos thats 300+ USD. I want to get the i5 4440 but if i get the i3 4130 i can buy more parts this month. Any suggestions? Im only playing dota 2, a little MMOs and just planning to play high end games like the latest AC, Watch Dogs etc.

Thanks in advance

You should probably save up for now, and get everything at once. This way you can get the new parts if they come out, or get the parts that are out now for cheaper.

Otherwise, you can get an i5-4590 with an asrock h97 pro4 for under $300.

Performance wise, i5 4590 better than 4440? I decided to buy the gpu last cuz intel integrated graphics can handle dota 2(not maxed out)

It is indeed better than the 4440. And if you've seen that it does, then by all means do that, but I wouldn't recommend gaming on an iGPU, the experience wouldn't be the best.

Yeah my old cpu was an i5 3570 no gpu and layed dota 2.sold it last year though. You wouldnt recommend the i3 4130? Bcuz of the 2 cores? H97will be a pretty good mobo too because broadwell cpu is compatible am i right? I dont know if i can find h97 here.stocks are limited in my place

 

[Ytyoussef]

Yeah the h97 supports broadwell, but why did you sell the 3570? It isn't much less powerful than the ones we were talking about.. Anyway, no the i5 would be better, why would you want 2 cores?

i needed the money for something and i was busy last year anyways heheh anyways, thanks man. appreciate it. im only playing @ 900p so no need for some overkill GPU. A r9 270x would max anything i guess.
