Is my cpu good enough?

Hello. My current cpu is i5 7500 and i would like to ask if it is enough for the upcoming games. Also i dont have problem playing at high settings and not ultra but i want to aim thay 60fps. So do you guys think it will be enough?

Average 60 FPS should be achievable or at least with the vast majority. Minimum of 60fps there are already games that will drop under 60fps and AAA games will continue to get more demanding.

Most game settings don’t impact the cpu woakload. In most games changing from high to ultra will likely only impact gpu workload so if your cpu is limiting you at ultra settings it will also limit you at high settings.

This is all very game dependent. If you are not playing modern cpu heavy AAA games then 60fps minimum won’t be an issue.

Well i would like to play games like bf5 and division 2

From my little experience I would say your cpu should be fine. If you're worried about your fps I would look into gpu and if that is going to handle any of your games. That cpu shouldn't have any bottlenecks with almost any card you have in.

So anyways do u think i5 7500 and rx 580 8gb will be enough for the upcoming games?

Absolutely enough to run them at good FPS and would expect a mixture of high/ultra settings unless some very gpu heavy games come out.
