Is i3 Skylake 6100 good for gaming? my pc parts are

GTX 960 4GB
GIGABYTE GA-B150M DDR4
8GB DDR4 Kingston
Corsair VS Series VS550 - 550 Watt SMPS
128 gb SSD any brand

my budget is low and i play mostly GTA V , ASSASSIN'S CREED IV,UNITY,SYNDICATE etc.. not a professional gamer to be honest i am a 16 year old boy love gaming...as i play games on my pc for 3-4 hours daily
and i wanna play most of the next 3-4 years upcoming gaming title at reasonable minimum 30-45 fps...

and does this build play gta v at ultra at minimum 45 fps?

if this build is good then i will build it within in a day or 2

and note this is my 2nd budget built... any help is appreciated...
 
The i3 6100 is an extremely good bang for buck budget CPU. It outperforms its hexa core competition fx 6300. I would highly recommend this if you budget is 100-130. In fact I am building a PC in the next few weeks with and i3 6100

You mean I can play next 3-4 years upcoming games without any problems?

 


Doubtful. However, you do have the choice of plopping an i5/i7 in the socket down the road (and of course another graphics card later on).
 

Yes I got what you said, but you said that this is a good CPU, so I am asking would this run all games till now at avg or 50fps in ultra? And next 2 years with a playable fps
 
@dudeman509
I understand what you said but my budget is low as I could not afford higher cpu's...as my budget is low and after watching number of reviews on YouTube about this CPU on gaming..I came to a conclusion that this will perform well on The games which I play usually, like GTA V, ASSASSIN CREED, BF3-4, COD... and will this help for next 2years? And by that time I will upgrade my system... and any other suggestions on my build? Help is appreciated thnx
 
Yep, it'll probably be fine for 2 years; by then, most AAA titles will probably need more than 2 physical cores to run well. And like I said, the upgrade path is easy when the time comes.

GTAV likes CPU and GPU power, but you'll probably be able to run at just a hair under 50 most places in the game.
 

Yes if it is paired with a gtx 960 can it run at 50fps? In ultra... I have a 1280x1024 VGA monitor
 

yes ultra with MSAA and extended distance scaling disabled...so I will get around 50fps ... can I? If not I will change my build parts.
 

U mean all the graphic card,mother board,power supply and all? Or just processor...

For processor 10k
All CPU components means 50k
