Need to upgrade my cpu and am at a stalemate between the 7500 and the 7600k.
PC Specs:
Processor: Intel 3.70 GHz Core i3-6100
Graphics: EVGA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti SSC GAMING ACX 3.0, 4GB GDDR5
Motherboard: MSI H110M Pro-VD
RAM: Ballistix Sport LT 8GB Kit (4GBx2) DDR4 2400 MT/s
Cooler: Stock
Power Supply: EVGA 500B
Drive 1: Intel 240GB SSD
Drive 2: WD Blue 1TB SATA 6 Gb/s 7200 RPM 64MB Cache
Case: Corsair Carbide SPEC-2
I am unsure whether it is worth the extra money to get the cooler, better motherboard, and K series processor so I can overclock. The main game I want to see the most improvement in is PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds.
If I get the i5-7500, I would get a $70-$115 motherboard.
If I get the i5-7600k, I would get a motherboard near the $200 range and an aftermarket cooler.
Any input is appreciated,
