PC Gaming Builds

[Cosmic77]

I'm torn between these two builds. (GPU+CPU)

They're both the same price, and I was wondering whether the HD 7850 was still relevant today.

i3+280 http://pcpartpicker.com/p/rmd9pg
i5+7850 http://pcpartpicker.com/p/b2QR6h

I'll be playing Planetside 2, the new Star Wars game coming up ( same engine as BF4, so similar performance) and maybe World Of Tanks and some other games.

Thank you all that respond c:

The i3 build is far superior. I would not get a H81 motherboard though. Spend the extra $20 and get a H97, or find a B85 at the very least.

That's what I thought, thanks for the help.
