if I get a i5 6500t instead of a i3 6100 will it run better with the gtx 760

[f8iscumming]

I've been seeing alot of benchmarks of the gtx 760 with the i3 and want to know if I'll get much of a difference if I get a i5 6500t I know the i5 Is a better processor but would it effect the frames enough to see a difference? I will be running fortnite and overwatch at ultra/epic settings 1080p trying to maintain 60fps

The standard i5-6500 is clocked 500 and 700 MHz faster than the 6500t base/turbo clock speeds, and, the 7500 is priced the same is the i5-6500 and is another 100 MHz or so faster yet...

So, unless your rig (motherboard/pre-built power/thermal constraints?) does not support the 6500, 7500, that should be the new target purchase, IMO...

If you've not yet purchased a MB or CPU, then you should certainly be looking at the i5-8400 for about $10-$15 more....so then when you do upgrade the GPU, you can at least see some nice increases.

would it effect the frames enough to see a difference? Possibly.

However I wouldnt blow $ on such a tiny upgrade (your talking most likely single digit increase)
