Intel I5 3470 3.0GHz is better for gaming or Intel core I5 6500?

[Gogeto_16]

Hi,guys just want to ask that Intel I5 3470 3.0GHz is better for gaming or Intel core I5 6500?And BTW which one is budget able and is i5 7600 is really a good Pc some friends told me that is crap but I don't believe on that please clear my confusion and guys anyone tell me what is the rate of i5-3740 3.0ghz in Pakistan and my budget is about $430 suggest me a i5 for gaming like todays which should be better then Core 2 quad and i3.

The 1st number in all of those models represents the generation of cpu. Thus the 3470 is the third generation, 6500 is 6th and 7600 is the 7th generation.
Thus 7600 is newer then 6500 (and hence marginally better), and 6500 is 3 generations newer then a 3470.
Now if you say already had a 3470 then this is still a very usable CPU, it wont support the best of the best GPUs like a 1080 or Titan but it will support pretty much anything under that.

Now the 3470 uses a completely different (older) socket (that means how many physical metal pins interconnect the cpu and motherboard) then the 6500 and 7600 does. Finding a new 3470 and supporting motherboard is not going to be possible.
The 7600 is brand new (like released last month) and so finding supporting parts and motherboards may be difficult in your country.

Thus my suggestion is to get the i5 6500 and a supporting LGA1151 motheboard. Motherboard chipsets that support the 6500 are h110, b150, h170 and z170 so look for boards that have one of those chipsets on them.
You will also need new DDR4 memory for your new motherboard.

For gaming roughly: i5-7600 = I5-6500 > I5-3470 > i3 > Core 2 quad.

well i5 6500 has 200mhz more clock speed 3.2ghz up to 3.6ghz on a single core i have this in my build you will see a massive improvement if you upgrade to the 6th gen. there is no real differance to the 7th gen cpu a bit more clock speed which is great doe is it really worth the extra money if skylake the 6th gen will do for a good couple of years until cannonlake comes about

So bro can I make a i5 6600 or i5 6500 in the budget of $420 with a gtx 750 ti?

 

[filippi]

Go for GTX 1050 or RX470. No point in get a gtx 750 ti anymore.

For gaming: (I5 3470 + RX470) > (I5 3470 + GTX 1050) > (i5 6600 or 5 6500 + gtx 750 ti)

Hey you are saying that gtx 750 ti is better with i5 6500 and 6600???

 

[ac13044]

i5 3470 vs i5 6500 link below i5 6500 will better best option as it is near 10% faster, also the performance is excellent and it is newer with new tech compared to the 15 3470.

price on the gtx 1050ti and the rx470 links are below for amazon prices are different

up to yourself both are good cards

No. I did say you should not buy the powerful i5 6500 if your spare money will make you go gtx750ti.
Get the cheaper I5 3470 and use the spare money for the far stronger gtx1050. Or even a cheap RX460.
The oced MSI AMD Radeon RX 460 OC 2GB for 100 bucks... really no point in go 750ti...

I myself do own a 750TI so i know what i am tanking about... 750ti time is way over.

I have gtx 1060 3gb which is unluckily paired with core2quad 2.4 ghz i am getting damn bad performance in all 2017 games fps is not increasing from 20-30 in games whereas gpu usage is 20-30% and cpu usage is 100% it sounds bottleneck in a huge amount, i am quite disappointed after getting this beast gtx 1060 of 260$ in Pakistan and my cpu is a crap so should i get core i5 3470 to pair with gtx 1060 or pentium g4560 ? which would be the best for gtx 1060 3gb?

 

[Saniasiddiquii]

Gogeto gtx 750ti ka zamana gya buy rx470 or gtx 1060 3gb atleast to play all 2017 games on ultra settings at 1080p

yar rx460 main 4GB hai to wo lai sakta houn I can buy only 4GB RX 460 if there is 4GB RX 460 I don't have much budget

 

[Saniasiddiquii]

i bought gtx 1060 3gb i am playing all games on ultra settings fit chalrha Allah ka shuker

It depends on your pc configuration k apkay pas pc konsa hay..

The motherboard for the i5 3470 is the same mother board used for i7 i5 and i3 it's all LGA 1155 socket so yes you can find motherboards easy for the 3470 and you can still buy them brand new for about 200 bucks

The mobo for i3,5 & i7 are about 200 bucks?

No I ment in Canada you can by brand new 3470 in box for around 200 from what I've seen and the mother boars for that is a z77 chipset more then enough for gaming but that being said the mother boards that are z77 chipset lga1155 socket are also about 200 bucks average

I got it By the way what are the difference in DDR3 1866MHz and DDR3 1600Mhz I know that the DDR3 1866MHz is faster but is there any other difference?
